Futureshop near Mac?
Hi. I need to buy a digital camera ASAP (as in by tomorrow).
My old one blew :(
I thought maybe Mac Micro had some but unfortunately they didn't.
Where is the closest electronics store (i.e. Futureshop) near Mac?
I'm really bad with direction so if I could walk, it'd be so much better. If not, I'm willing to take the bus.
Thanks in advance!

And then the 5A back. Couldn't be simpler. It's like 20 minutes.
The 5C will bring you down to Meadowlands, and down Golf Links Road (the massive road with all the shops). Stay on it. It will then turn left. Get off at that stop. (BestBuy is to the right of Zellers). And at that stop, you can get back on the 5C/5A (it changes from 5C, which brings you there, to 5A, but don't worry, it's the same bus)

Not that they will have the selection of best buy, there is a blacks in University Plaza, just down Main street. There is also a Henry`s up by the Best Buy. If you want to talk to someone who actually knows what they are talking about instead of reading the box for you.
If you are not sure what you want to buy yet, here is the best site for reviews and info on digital cameras. They recently just finished comparisons for all different categories of point and shoots. Sorry, I practically live on the site so I thought I would pass it along. |

In the fortinos on Main St. there is also an electronics department. I know they have tvs and video game consoles and stuff, so they may have cameras there and its really close to mac. You could always call and ask. They probably wouldnt have the same selection as the places listed above, but at least its close.
