Default Power Bar with Timer

Anyone know where I can get a cheap power bar with a timer that controls 2+ outlets? I was thinking of just going with the Coralife Power Center, but figure there might be something at canadian tire that could do the same thing. Im looking for something that will turn my lights on and off and possibly something that I can use as a wavemaker for 2 powerheads that can turn off/on at set intervals.

Wally-World has some inexpensive ones that are EXACTLY the same as the corallife ones minus the corallife graphics. They timer also controls 4 outlets at once and not 2 & 2 like the corallife. So...I guess they're not exact, but definatley out of the same factory. Regardless, way better than the cheapys because the have grouded outlets as well as a breaker.I think thery're around $15.

I have the digital coralife pwrbar/timer and it works well.I also have a couple cheapola non digital ones from Zellers that work just as well.I think any store like Zellers,Wally World,Canadian tire all carry them.
