Sony of Canada offers scratch off savings on Alpha A100 and other products


Sony of Canada has launched a new “Take the Sony Test” back-to-school promo. If you are lucky enough to shop a Sony Store in Canada in the next month, you can save as much as $150.00 off a shiny new Alpha A100 — or other Sony products.

According to the press release:

“Effective August 4 to September 10, 2006, customers who buy selected Sony products will receive a chance to scratch for instant savings up to $150 off their purchases.”

It doesn’t end there, either. There are a host of instant winner prizes including $500 gift cards, Playstations, LCD Screens and more. Oh yeah — one lucky winner will receive an Alpha A100 kit valued at $1,499.99. (Canadian currency)

Apparently, if you buy an Alpha — or other Sony gear, you will receive a scratch-off ticket that will reveal a dollar amount that you can subtract from your purchase — up to $150.00 worth. The press release wasn’t clear on when you can start scratching, but with most promotions like this, you have to actually buy something before you get the ticket — so you don’t know how much you will save until you’ve agreed to buy the product. Again, based on other promotions like this, there may be a variety of dollar amounts under the scratch card — so you may only save a few bucks. Then again, you might save the full $150.
Still if you live or shop in Canada and plan to buy an A100 — it might be well worth your while to visit a Sony store and buy your camera there. You might wind up getting steal on that new Alpha A100.
If any Canadian readers take the Sony back-to-school test and wind up saving some cash, please leave a comment and let us know! If any other countries are having similar promotions, we want to hear about it as well.
Until next time, stay focused! — Tom

Who is that guy?

Hi. I'm Tom Bonner and I've been shooting with Minolta SLRs for over three decades.

Alphatracks is my attempt to follow Sony's maneuvers in the dSLR market, and at the same time provide a resource for Minolta film and digital SLR users. A-mount shooters have to watch each other's backs, because there aren't as many of us. At least not for now....
