Maybe Santa could talk the US boot store out of a pair.. :) Those boots would last a lifetime... !!!!!<br />I have been watching(addicted)a kitten cam from Canada and until I heard the foster Mom talk about Canada I had no idea how expensive it is there. And she has been in Canada over a year and came from San Francisco.

I do remember having customers in Canada who would have their items sent to an address in the US and then they'd drive over to get them. I just didn't realize why they'd go to all that trouble.karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16313237142656662148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-44260455110550055972013-09-13T09:33:07.787-03:002013-09-13T09:33:07.787-03:00Good grief, unbelievable.

I always look for good bargains and buy when things are on sale only and stock up and freeze the perishable that can be frozen like butter for example but you are right at the prices being marked higher for us Canadians. Cars are much cheaper bought in the US.<br /><br />Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-69515960823451182232013-09-12T23:13:23.960-03:002013-09-12T23:13:23.960-03:00Seriously???

You have a wonderful community and you live by the ocean. The only price I knew was I paid 2.40 for a pound of butter last week. So I guess that is cheaper and I live in Commie California which it getting pretty bad, pretty soon we will be like Cuba. I think our Nutty Governor wants to be like Castro. Oh and no cigars. I do see why people cross the border though. That is just too much of a price difference.

Like free health care (which is not free) We lived near the border when I was a kid and I heard all about the help your government gave fishermen and businesses etc it is not free and you are all paying dearly for it. I have no idea what the exchange rate is but I believe it is pretty close. We struggle on this side of the border with heating oil and gas.<br /><br />Cathyacorn hollowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503414190541111706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-64291878143052911662013-09-12T22:21:58.239-03:002013-09-12T22:21:58.239-03:00My sister-in-law used to work at a mall in Niagara...My sister-in-law used to work at a mall in Niagara Falls (US) and she sai the amout of clothes thrown away in the mall trash cans or left in the parking lot was incredible. Canadians wore them to the US, then wore the new clothing purchases back to avoid paying on them. I could not believe the prices when we went to Canada last year. I guess my days of shopping were when the exchange worked in our favor!
