Best time of year to buy hardware from online retailers in Canada?

[alanwalterthomas]

I have bought from sites like directcanada, newegg, bestdirect.ca etc.
I want to buy some assorted bits & pieces but I'm not in a hurry.
So, what's the best time of year to buy from online retailers in Canada?
Back to school? Christmas sale? Boxing week sale? New Year's sale? ...?
Which is usually the best? I would absolutely hate to buy at x-mas then have the price of some ram drop $20 at new year's.

There really is no best time, just keep an eye on the prices, and be prepared to buy at short notice. With the economy the way it is, good prices come and go weekly.
