So I was sent a link to the Wii sale on Bestbuy.ca yesterday (may 5^th, 2008) and decided to order a second Wii Wheel for MarioKart that my brother bought me (So that we can go head to head in some MarioKart racing – hell yeah!!!). I filled out the required information and then decided to look for local pick-up but unfortunately all the stores near me were sold out. So I move on to the shipping option – The first shipping option from BestBuy is “Ground” and costs me $1.99 CAD. But if I wanted a faster service I could always opt for the “Expedited” service @ $126.41 CAD!!!

I nearly fell off my chair reading that shipping cost. Ever wonder why online shopping has never caught on in Canada-eh? Because we have some of the most exaggerated shipping costs ever (I should also add in there the lack of big box stores and low population volumes) CPC just does not get it any more.
