A friend of mine recently asked for some advice because he wanted to get a DSLR . I told him to take a look at the XSI and 18-55 IS.

Well he emailed me today because he just bought the XSi + 18-55 IS + 55-250 IS kit for $874.99 !!! http://www.bestbuy.ca …d=BDL10001588&c​atid=20222 (external link)

I didn't believe him at first so I looked it up. Is that not the best price yet for this 2 lens kit?

Considering the 2 lenses go for about $400, that is a very hot price!

Great deal for Canada, not available at the US site and not available for shipping to the US.

Great package though if you need the two lenses (say you own a 40D body only). Get the package, sell the XSi body only for around say, $600 or so. And get the two lenses for $200-300 ish.
