Canada has implemented a new tax savings from December to February for some things like taxable groceries, crafts, and gaming physical media. I wanted to get a new Xbox controller and found the best price at Walmart for $55 a week ago. The tax holiday starts today and I now see that the $55 has increased to $62 and change, which is about how much tax I should be saving. Great to see this thinly veiled attempt to help Canadians ( /s - win votes) is just going to be extra profit in the corporations’ pockets.

    I’m guessing J.C. Penny’s doesn’t have EU stores?

      Ah, the very store that tried “no sales so we can give you year-round low prices”!

      Until they found out we consumers ain’t gonna buy unless somebody puts the word sale somewhere every once in a while.
