-- Posted by murphy mcbagel at 7:11 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 half the cars i see in the parking lot read "Ontario: yours to discover!" (though i know full well what's to discover, alcohal and a hotel called Wheels inn) and there's bus's, TOUR BUSSES from Canada! Just to shop? is that why there are so many blocking my way when i'm trying to push in carts, with their "oots" instead of "out" or their quiet judgemental look on their face that hints at great intelligence, but is spoiled when i hear there accent. sorry but it's gonna be black friday and i have to serve you people in the form of carts. why do you guys drive the length just to get a dollar cheaper? -- Posted by QuantumBlaze at 7:12 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 I like Canadians. -- Posted by Innuendo Girl at 7:12 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 Because Canadians are fucking retarded -- Posted by DannyJay at 7:12 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 Canadians are cool. -- Posted by Elephantis at 7:12 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 SHUSH -- Posted by YeahBoii at 7:12 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 Christmas shopping and taking advantage of the sales? -- Posted by akallen at 7:12 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 Canadians are awesome. but, I guess yeah, low taxes here.... -- Posted by Stand Up at 7:13 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 maybe cuz it's cheaper? -- Posted by audrey820 at 7:13 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 -- Posted by MixedDelight at 7:13 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 The dollar difference is hardly worth the bother. It's pennies, but gas is really cheap in Canada, so why not take advantage of it to travel? I'm sure they don't care about your 'dah-leers' or your Target, they're probably just stretching their legs and using the toilet. -- Posted by lucid dreams19 at 7:14 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 Because everything in the US is soooo much cheaper especially things like clothes. And its not just a bit cheaper, its like half price on shoes in some cases and just more selection. I usually drive the 2 hours to grand froks, ND two or three times a year for shopping. Its definetly worth the drive. -- Posted by murphy mcbagel at 7:19 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 no. i don't think that's a really good reason. would you drive to mexico just to eat tacos? -- Posted by MonaLisaCries at 7:21 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 Quote: from Innuendo Girl at 9:12 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 Because Canadians are fucking retarded Thanks, we love you too :] -- Posted by liveone555 at 7:43 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 .... -- Posted by murphy mcbagel at 7:52 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 Quote: from liveone555 at 7:43 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 .... aha! so your secretly canadian! -- Posted by liveone555 at 9:12 am on Nov. 25, 2008 Quote: from murphy mcbagel at 10:52 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 Quote: from liveone555 at 7:43 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 .... aha! so your secretly canadian!

That place, compared to here, is fucking ridiculously cheap. Half price cheap. Worth the trip, if you're going to buy a lot, or buy something big (car, anyone?). Add that to black friday (which we DONT have, since its not Turkey day here. We dont even have it on our turkey day), and holy shit!!!! Savings!!! And I'd like to point out that never once has my "out" rhymed with "hoot". Thanks. -- Posted by fezzy at 11:01 pm on Nov. 27, 2008 When I lived in El Paso, I had a similar problem. Why did Mexicans keep coming late at night on Halloween to trick-or-treat... when CLEARLY everyone's lights were already out? -- Posted by rickyspeople at 11:55 am on Nov. 28, 2008 Quote: from orange joy at 8:57 pm on Nov. 27, 2008 Dude, I know how it is to go to Minot (close to the border, close to Sask).

Thanks. exactly. lower taxes, lower prices, different products. also, end of summer/fall is the biggest season for senior tours. it isn't as hot, cheaper rates. that's probably why you're seeing lots of busses. -- Posted by MrRight at 3:00 pm on Nov. 28, 2008 Except buying a car in the states is not worth it anymore because the border will collect the difference in the tax it charges you.
