I just saw that on CTV. I heard it would get to $1.10 by the end of this week but I didn't think it would get there today. Our dollar went up but our gas went up four cents yesterday here in Kelowna as well.

Well it looks like one retailer may be learning to lower DVD prices in Canada. Today at Wal-mart the Ratatouille DVD was $17.97! While that still doesn't match the US asking price, it is a lot better than what other Canadian retailers are asking ($23-$26). Also, Transformers 2-discer was down to $23.83 (it was $27.83 last week).

It's small, but it's a step in the right direction........
