What sucks though, at least for us Canadians, is that we're still paying quite a bit more for everything, even though the exchange rate is more or less equal. Books, movies, magazines and video games are especially bad for this, as the Canadian price is usually about the same as it was 5 or 10 years ago. For example, I pay $60 for a $50 video game.<BR/><BR/>Sorry, I kinda went on a rant of my own there. My family has actually taken a few of those measures lately. Thanks for the thanksgiving wishes, and in case I forget, Happy Thanksgiving to yourself this November.BlueFlamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16287120096860000416noreply@blogger.com
