Chris, I got mine at a G&T downtown.  I had a hard time finding them and not all G&T stores had them.  I've also been told that Walmart carries them now.  If you have trouble finding them, let me know and I'll hook you up.

The Walmart in my area just got them in recently,  they weren't kept with the other sharpies but had a display area of their own on the end of an aisle.  The display had a pic of David Beckham signing an autograph with the sss.

Staples /office depot is supposed to have them also, first in the U.S. then in Canada.

Quebec usually isn't eligible for contests too... why is that?  Everytime I read the fine print for some contest it always says something like "Open to all US and Canadian residents. Void in Guam, Puerto Rico and Quebec."

Several staples near me don't have them and the store staff is clueless.  Some didn't even know that there is a stainless steel Sharpie out.

Beats me, then again I'm not surprised consider quebec operates on a totally different frequency and doesn't even follow Canadian constitution. Did you know here if a kid in French high school get caught speaking English outside of English class, they get detention?

Quebec doesn't need to enter any contests,  they generally win most of the big lotteries anyways. :D

Shame that they don't have Ultra-Fine refills available. I can't cram nearly enough of my micro-scribbling in where I need to with the Fine tips.

As PyroJames said, hopefully they will offer different sized refills at some point.

I'd also like to see a "mini SS Sharpie" with a hole for a key ring!  :drool:

Very nice review  :tu:

The SS Sharpie reminds me of a posh watch; it makes lines no better than a normal marker in the same way a Rolex tells the time no better than a Casio.    I'd still like one though :D
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.
