Thank Me Later for anyone that's wondering and getting pissed at Toast for not posting it here so that we can all be less intelligent after knowing another useless acronym.

+1 for Canada Computers.
Don't even bother going to Titles, if you want something affordable.

The only reason I go to titles is if I need something right away (like running out of lead before a test) but I would never get electronics from there.
On the other hand, i have recently discovered how ridiculously cheap ebay can be, i just bought 2 mousepads for $3 with free shipping

I would risk buying cheap things off of eBay but anything expensive, no thanks. |

I just mean in general, i would never buy anything worth more then $20 at full price here off of ebay. but for little accessories, like a fan and a game i bought, they work fine

I was just saying what came to mind. Never said you would buy anything more than $20.  |

Asides from Canada Computers theres also The Source at university plaza, they take SPC too so it might work out cheaper. If you dont mind waiting though I would shop online, Amazon, Tiger Direct, NCIX, Best Buy, etc.

you can try directCanada, i found it better then NCIX and they have free shipping on orders over $50, plus it took only like two business days to get here. Though if your getting insurance, they use a different shipper so it will take like 5 biz days or so.
Can you RMA your mouse back? usually there's at least 1 year warranty, or maybe even more.

I got an M505 (this one specifically, there's a newer version that isn't as good) at Staples for about $20. It's great, works on pretty much anything.

12$ cheaper then best direct, you dont have to walk and you might even get free shipping
or if you want to pony up 20 more dollars you can get a g700, but i've found with even heavy mmo playing and pretty efficient keybinding you dont need more side buttons then the g500
