i dont know why you would take it off, when you dish out that money for it, so may as well just keep it on for the week

It can get uncomfortable? But it's true, it's waterproof so you can even shower with it on.

Just a clarification the prices changes after Aug 15th (not 16th ), so starting Aug 16th, it'll be $130 / $134

I'm commuting from Mississauga, so for welcome week i'm taking the GO bus in the morning during the week. What are some ways (other than driving lol) of getting back later at night during the week and getting there and back on weekends? the GO bus doesnt run very late from Mac and it doesnt run on weekends...
Are residence people allowed to have guests during welcome week?

I'm pretty sure last year during WW residencers weren't allowed to have guests stay over. I'm not sure about the commuting part tho.

Yep, Kayli's right. Someone asked that same question in another thread a few weeks back. Doesn't seem like it's possible :(

Buses run much later during the school year -- the last one leaves close to midnight if I'm not mistaken. Unfortunately you can't check when as GO hasn't released their September schedule yet. They should in a few weeks though.

And no, res students aren't allowed overnight guests until after WW is over.

Um... a few hours ago I tried to buy a MacPass online and it wouldn't sell for the "early bird" price of 120$ ... wanted to charge me 130...
even though it was still August 14.... just wondering if anyone knew of any problem Mac was having or if they were just lying when they said that the deadline to buy a discounted pass is August 15th at 11pm

thanks! (:

No idea. This is the first year you could buy the MacPass online; all previous years it was via phone, mail, or in person.

Call Titles customer service and tell them about your problem and ask them what they suggest.

K well I called Titles and they were very nice ... but couldn't really help me much :/ ... they actually thought that this year tickets are supposed to go for $130 and as much as $140 in September... odd :S
I guess I'll just buy my ticket NOW online before I get busy or forget

I am planning on purchasing my Mac Pass before 11 pm today and it says the cost is $134.00 as the transaction, isn't the cost $124.00? I'm an off-campus student.
