Even though majority of people here is from US but it really helps if you tell us where you are from. As you should of know, different countries buy things from different places.

I am pretty sure I need a DDR3, but which one would I purchase from this page? Theres a bunch of them

Hi 'mikesta99'.. I also live in Canada and have bought 9-10 RAM Sets for Apple Computers from Newegg.ca up here.. always had great service, and have used more MUSHKIN branded (USA Made) than any other, without a single issue ever, but they also sell Crucial and Corsair which get good reviews typically..

This Newegg link will take you to 'DDR3 204 Pin' options, then decide what you want.. Just search out your specific MBP here, by year and speed, and it will show you the Type and maximum RAM it will take.. Never had it steer me wrong yet.. Good Luck!! :apple:
