Free GeekSquad laptop tune-up and mobile setup from Best Buy Canada at TD Plaza

If there is something I love is freebies, and I also love when a company like Best Buy Canada follows up their awesome promotion (like the external hard drive giveaway they recently sponsored on my blog) with other great propositions, including a few hours of GeekSquad free laptop tune-ups and help setting up your mobile devices (on a first-come, first-serve).

On Tuesday, August 31 from 11am – 7pm, at the TD Plaza on West Georgia and Granville Geek Squad and Best Buy Mobile will be on location downtown providing FREE computer system tune-ups and mobile phone upgrade checks. You can bring your phone, or your computer – and they’ll do the work while you get your technology questions answered by the experts of GeekSquad and Best Buy and enter to win very cool prizes.

Below I quote what they are offering.

The one thing that I am particularly liking about this Best Buy Canada project is the heavy involvement of social media – they are encouraging you to tweet @BBYCanada with the hashtag #BBY4BTS – they will be giving away gift cards and drawing on the 100th tweet, the 1,000th, etc.
