Smart Tech Shopping update
I just noticed that newegg.ca is also on airmilesshops.ca., as well as apple.ca, so you can get AirMiles on those tech purchases!

Smart Tech Shopping
I should mention from the start I am a cost-conscious and perhaps overly-analytical shopper, so when I am looking for computer parts and accessories, home electronics and the like, I do a fair bit of research beforehand looking at reviews and comparison shopping.
At the moment, my list of favourite stores and sites includes FutureShop, BestBuy, Staples, The Source by Circuit City, Dell.ca, TigerDirect.ca, NCIX.com and most recently newegg.ca.
A number of these merchants have customer loyalty programs. BestBuy has their own rewards program that you get rebates to redeem on future purchases. The Source, Dell and TigerDirect all participate in the AirMiles program if you access their stores via AirMilesShops.ca first. Great for double-dipping with an AirMiles credit card! See the full list of merchants at AirMileShops.ca
Dell in particular has become a regular place for me to purchase tech stuff including a Logitech Harmony 880 programmable universal remote control, two APC UPSs (I still can't figure how they gave free shipping on these - they weigh a ton), an Antec Sonata III 500PC case, two wireless keyboard and mouse combos and a really nice Dell 24 inch 2408WFP LCD monitor.
Dell is currently running a Ten Days of Deals, each day featuring 6 new great values. Check them out at:
