Well in Canada, a lot of stores offering sales were busy, however the real crowds are coming out today is yesterday was not a holiday.
Labtops are much cheaper in the US and here in Canada you can buy a $500 dollar labtop but be forced to spend another $100 on creating recvovery discs that use to be free and then 13% tax.
In the US I found the same labtop with free recovery discs and 4% sales tax for $400.
So instead of $678, its $452 down south and in the end it was only $100 dollars cheaper.
