Saw that. Thanks, William. If anyone sees any other really good tech deal, please post. In particular, something for higher capacity SSD's (> 500 gb) and Raspberry Pi kits.

Usual place for SSD is Canada Computers.

And not to forget, Mike; I believe the consensus is:

$53.50 for the RPi 3B @ Creatron in Toronto (ROAD TRIP! <^8#), with a Lucite(?) case as low as $9.50 (pink! - the clear one's $9.99, case with fan $14.99);
$100. for the RPi 3B Complete Starter Kit @ CanaKit.com ($120. for the "Ultimate" or $152. for the "Official" kits from the same place);
$46. for the RPi 3B alone, CanaKit.com (sorry, those prices we looked at online were $USD - *tiny* little currency chooser at the bottom of the page).

That said, CanaKit.com is in North Vancouver, BC, so duty, excise, etc. *ought not* to come into play...

Don't forget the kit (not as full as the complete starter kit) at the Microsoft store for $75 which includes enclosure and power supply (free delivery):
