Shopping for the best price

Hello!

So I just went through this long issue with 'The Source" for a GPS device for my dad for christmas. To sum it up; stores suck, try your best to get the best price you can becasue all stores will try to screw you too.
That said, some employees at the stores can be kind and helpful, but in the end they can only do what the company lets them do. It is their job.

So, here are some sites to help find the best prices all over the internet!!
Most look like they are only for the US :( but I will keep looknig for Canadian ones.
