Everything is 20 - 40% cheaper, just on sticker price, in the US as opposed to Canada.

red bull it $1.79 in the Us at K-mart last time i was in there, the price for red bull is fixed at $2.99 in Canada per can.

that is a 67% price difference, then factor in that you guys have half the taxes.

I have made it a habit for years of not buying any clothing, car-parts, jewellery etc. in Canada.

i bought my wife’s engagement ring in the states and saved around $2,500 + as opposed to buying the same ring in Canada.

i really want to buy a decent winter car in the western NY area this year and try my hand and importing / driving US vehicles with my canadian license.

Well then on that note, I stand corrected. Maybe Buffalo should huryy up with those Peace Bridge plans so more Canadians can come over 6 lanes at a time instead of 2 or 1.
