you know how on books they have the price in US $ and the Canadian price is always a couple dollars more...now that the Canadian dollar is worth more than the US dollar, are Canadians getting ripped off on the prices of books by having to pay more?
Canadian/US exchange rate and the price on books?
Mostly we are getting a bad deal on all products, but many retailers are realizing we will just mail order from U.S. - or go south of the border for a shopping trip. So, they all say they are bringing down their prices - some stores offer books at the US price. They all say it takes time and they have old stock at older rates, blah blah.... but believe me, when it is the other way around (Cnd dollar drops much lower than U.S.) - the prices go up pretty darn quick. Wonder why they are not going down very fast? hmmm

Some places (I know Walmart is for sure) are selling books/magazines at the US price. The Canadian prices for this stuff is Crazy!

We are soooo getting ripped off, and in protest, i%26#039;m not buying my magazines elsewhere than Wal Mart. Honestly, so not fair...and stores like Banana Republic, Old navy, H%26amp;M...still have pricetags higher (by 25%) than on US websites...and don%26#039;t even get me started on electronics...and with our sales taxes, it just plain sucks. Feels good to vent!
