Amazon has such a range of items to choose from, that it would be really simple to blow $100 there. If you’re a big reader, just stock up on a load of juicy novels, or if you are a gadget lover, you could check out their electronics section. They also have their video games section if you dabble in a bit of unreality! Here on Bargainmoose, I like to give out prizes that I think anyone and everyone might make use of, and I think the Amazon voucher fits this criteria.

Heads up! The Nintendo Wii is in stock at Amazon Canada right now, priced at only $169!

The Nintendo Wii comes with the Wii Sports game. My favorite game on it is the bowling – it’s great fun! Though I’ve also enjoyed a few rounds of Wii golf too.

If you’re buying this, I would recommend buying an extra wii-mote too, as the basic WIi package only comes with one. The Wii is a great multiplayer console… and 1 wii-mote definitely isn’t enough!

I have had a Wii for a while now, but I’m finding we’re not using it as much as we used to. Although I did recently buy the new Wii Fit Plus game and I am going to try and use it to get back into shape post-pregnancy.

Amazon Canada is advertising a 50% off movie sale, with special offers on DVD and blu-ray movies.

• Click here to see the sale @ Amazon Canada

There are some great titles in there! For example, here are my picks:

• Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs DVD for $16.49 – I’ve seen the first 2, but I haven’t seen the 3rd one yet. Is it as good?

• The Shawshank Redemption (10th Anniversary 2-Disc Special Edition DVD) for $9.99 – one of the best movies of all time!

• Seven [Blu-ray] for $9.49 – another one of my all-time fave movies. And Brad Pitt is just hot. What’s in the box!?

• Sin City [Blu-ray] for $13.99 – Michey Rourke stole the show in this movie. And the yellow man was such a nasty piece of work.

• Star Trek (2009) [Blu-ray] for $29.99 – being something of a trekkie myself, I really enjoyed this movie!

When you think of Amazon Canada, you think of books, DVDs and music (well I do)! But they also sell electronics and their selection is getting more and more extensive. Right now, they have a sale on all sorts of Asus computers, from notebooks to netbooks, with up to 20% off their regular prices.

• Click here to see the Asus sale @ Amazon Canada

Prices start at $339.99 and go upwards from that. For example, this little Asus netbook is $339.99. It could be handy if you want a little portable computer to carry round with you when you are out and about, perhaps if you travel a lot.

Moving on up the prices ranges a bit is this Asus 13.3″ laptop. It’s priced at $798.99 and might be handier if you want a bit more screen room to work from. It seems to have a pretty good specification as well, with 4GB ram and a 320GB hard drive for storage space.

Right up at the top of the range is the Asus 15.6″ gaming laptop, priced at $1199.99. It’s a gorgeous little piece of kit, but in my opinion if you are willing to spend $1200, you are much better off going for a highly specced desktop machine. Would be much better for gaming!

I am posting this one up as it is one of my favorite series of recent years! Amazon Canada is offering the complete DVD boxset of Farscape for only $79.99 with free shipping.

• Click here to order Farscape DVD boxset @ Amazon Canada

This is a spectacular show if you like that sort of thing, and $80 for ALL the DVDs is really cool. I have an older version of the boxset, and I once spent the whole summer watching every single episode!

I know that not everyone is a sci-fi fan, but people who gave Farscape a chance enjoyed it! If you like sci-fi but haven’t seen this show, I recommend it. It gets a rating of 8.7/10 on IMDB, which is excellent.

I know I’m posting this quite far in advance, but those of us who like to be prepared with pressies will already be starting to think about a Valentine’s Day gift for the other half. By the time you choose and gift and get it shipped, it will nearly be Valentine’s Day anyway!

I was browsing Amazon.ca and I noticed they have split a few things into a Valentine’s Day section, which might be worth taking a look at for gift ideas.

• Click here to shop Valentine’s gifts @ Amazon Canada

They recommend many different kinds of things, from romantic DVDs to pink laptops!! Let me show you a few examples:

• Gone With the Wind: You can pick up this classic movie on DVD for only $16.49. You know, I don’t think I have ever watched this movie, so it might be a good idea for me.

• Kodak Zx1 720p Pocket HD Camcorder (Pink): This might be a good one for a lady Valentine… it’s a little pink pocket camcorder, and it’s only $104.99.

• 69 Love Songs Box Set [Box set]: I’ll not say anything about the provocative number in the name of this CD set… but it could be a good audio gift for a loved one! The CD boxset is only $41.99 and it’s packed full of luvvy-dovery songs like I’m Sorry I Love You, Sweet-Lovin’ Man and Chicken with It’s Head Cut Off!?

Remember, shipping is free from Amazon.ca when you spend $39 or more.

I recently bought a copy of Wii Sports Resort, which came with one of the new wii motionplus accessories. Now, the game is good fun… but there’s only so much fun you can have playing the single player games. To really have a lot more fun, you need a 2nd wii motionplus, so you can play 2 player swordfights and table tennis.

If you’d like to buy one with a spare remote, then Amazon are bringing out a few bundle deals in various colors, which could be handy:

• Click here for the Wii Remote and Wii MotionPlus bundles for $55 @ Amazon Canada

The deal is only $54.99 for an extra controller and motionplus, as well as a wii jacket. You can choose from black, blue or pink! The item is due out next month, but you can pre-order them now if you want to get your order placed in advance.

If you would like to own ALL the Futurama DVDs plus some juicy extras too, you can order them all now from Amazon Canada, for the price of $101.99 (reduced from $199.98)!

• Click here to order Futurama coolness now!

The set is huge, and it contains loads of cool stuff which is better described on the dot com.

I already have all the Futurama boxsets or I would be very tempted to buy this deal! For all the hours of fun you could have with these DVDs, they’re well worth the hundred bucks. I think one of my favorite episodes was the one with the giant Amazon women and the femputer.

I am a day or two late in posting this Boxing Day deal from Amazon Canada, but it still applies now and doesn’t end until the 1st of January 2010, so there is still time for you to take advantage of it.

• Click here to shop the electronics Boxing Day deals @ Amazon Canada

Every day, they show us a new deal in their electronics section.

Listed on the page right now are a few bargains:

• The Razer gaming keyboard or the mouse, each is only $59.99.
• The Kodak C182 digital camera for only $99.99, in a choice of ravishing red, shiny silver or beaming blue.
• The Slingbox for only $299.99…
• Or the Flip UltraHD camcorder for only $199.99, with $25 free Amazon credit too.

Regarding the little GlipHD camcorder – a family member has one of these little devices, and I recently saw it for the first time when we were in Vegas. It was really handy – it was small, lightweight, and he could just whip it out and film whatever he wanted. A great little piece of electronics!
