Canada Sucks

... if you want to buy stuff online.

Alright, so sites like Threadless are cool. I just give my credit card (let them worry about exchange) and perhaps pay a bit more shipping. But companies that have stores in both the US and Canada? They are seriously gouging right now.

I had the misfortune of falling in love with Veronica Mars (don't hate) right before it got canceled. I was so excited to see that the first and second season were only $14.99 each at Best Buy! Woo!

Oh wait... I got redirected to the .ca page where they are $55.99 each!!! Holy Crap!

Crazy.

argh. that last copy+paste link is long.

juliejeremiah on Nov 15 '07 at 12:22am

Buy from the American site if you can, if not check out eBay or Amazon which is usually a lot more fair.

matchstick on Nov 15 '07 at 12:22am

This is all the fault of the Americans, and their shoddy dollar.
Don't hate the playa, hate the game.

dhectwenty on Nov 15 '07 at 12:23am

we have maple syrup though.

so thats even.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 12:25am

Umm. Canada has Deanna.

matchstick on Nov 15 '07 at 12:25am

Canada's got that milkshake which brings all the mounties to the yard!

... aww fuck, I dont know where I was going with that.

shirtflirt on Nov 15 '07 at 12:26am

lol @ romantic jackanapes

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 12:26am

No other canadians can live up to Deanna.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 12:28am

lol @ cynicalan.

mype4nut on Nov 15 '07 at 12:28am

Hmmm, I was looking at Amazon, but they must be having a special at Best Buy or something. That particular DVD is around $40 everywhere else. Time to haul-ass the the border I guess!

dhectwenty on Nov 15 '07 at 12:30am

we have better currency colours!

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 12:31am

it's true. Our money is quite pretty.

dhectwenty on Nov 15 '07 at 12:31am

btw, please don't print those.

or else our currency will drop.

maddingo on Nov 15 '07 at 12:33am

good lord that is ugly money

oh no way r they playing hockey on the back of teh five?

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 12:34am

of course they are! and there's a poem about hockey maybe on it too? I don't remember. Imma go find some money so I can check.

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 12:36am

nevermind. I spent my 5 today.

mype4nut on Nov 15 '07 at 12:37am

It's a rainbow for the legal gay marriages. And the Smarties, which are way better than M&Ms.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 12:40am

First off: we have Smarties here.

Second: If you think chalky sugar pills that give you instant cavities are better than the milk chocolate that melts in your mout, not in your hand . . . well, my friend . . . Get your head oot of your ass, eh!

maddingo on Nov 15 '07 at 12:40am

to quote(~ish???) the Simpsons

why would we go to America Jr. when we are already in America?

that line fucking cracks me up...

oh shite this blog reminds me ... I got a parking ticket in Vancouver I never paid... oh well... fuck em'

mype4nut on Nov 15 '07 at 12:45am

I don't think you have to pay, unless you ever go back.

And that teeth-rotting chalk is yummy. I know you have them there. Like Kit Kat, Coffee Crisp, Flake and Crunchie too. They must not be as readily available though, because American tourists always buy them here...

TheLiongKoon on Nov 15 '07 at 12:47am

I'd love to stay in Canada. I think it's a great place.

The Wee Straggler on Nov 15 '07 at 12:47am

Everything in Canada has a picture of guys playing hockey on it. Check the back of a Canadian ID sometime.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 12:48am

Well, they're readily available enough here to have made up a full 60-friggin-% of my Halloween candy as a kid!

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 12:49am

chris, american smarties are different from canadian smarties.

we call american smarties rockets, and we only ever see them on halloween.

Canadian smarties are candy covered chocolate, and they are quite delightful.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 12:50am

Wait. Do you mean "Snowdrops"? We have those here. You can get them at Blockbuster.

mype4nut on Nov 15 '07 at 12:50am

I always got tons of Mr. Big. I hated those things! Aero was the best halloween mini. But how cool is it that Smarties came in a BOX!?

iDanSimpson on Nov 15 '07 at 12:50am

on a completely different note. your glasses are hot. marry me.

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 12:50am

no. not snowdrops.

matchstick on Nov 15 '07 at 12:50am

WOAH, WHAT?
ROCKETS ARE SMARTIES?
I AM SO CONFUSED!

mype4nut on Nov 15 '07 at 12:51am

So are yours. We have the same ones actually... my other ones.

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 12:51am

Smarties

matchstick on Nov 15 '07 at 12:51am

holy shit, holy shit, holy shit
my brain is exploding!

matchstick on Nov 15 '07 at 12:52am

this makes me so confused!

mype4nut on Nov 15 '07 at 12:52am

Smarties are chocolate wrapped in rocket.

Woah.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 12:52am

Oh. Those.

No, I've never had those . . . what appear to be sugar will o' the wisps.

mype4nut on Nov 15 '07 at 12:53am

Note the "avoid confusion with Nestle Smarties", matchstick.

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 12:54am

Will o the wisps?

Never heard of them.

Smarties are good in cookies.
I coulda mailed you some with your cheer, but you want no part of it.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 12:55am

Wikipedia it.

Well. I don't want to get some unexplainable mail in the mail.

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 12:56am

fair enough. mail from creepy canadian girls would be hard to explain.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 12:58am

Do you guys have Nerds Rope, though?

iDanSimpson on Nov 15 '07 at 12:59am

the burberry ones?

The Wee Straggler on Nov 15 '07 at 12:59am

I learned something new tonight.

When people outside the US talk about Smarties, they mean a candy, not colored chalk disguised as candy.

Imagine that.

matchstick on Nov 15 '07 at 1:00am

Hey, also,
When you say Lieutenant
Do you say LEFFTENNANT?
or LOOTENNANT?

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 1:00am

Well, technically, as far as I understand, leftenant and lieutenant are two different things.

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 1:03am

we say leftenant.

also I have never heard of nerds rope.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 15 '07 at 1:04am

Well, "leftenant" is a word that I have seen in its own right.

ofthecoast on Nov 15 '07 at 1:06am

leftenant generals are the representatives of the queen in each province, I believe.

mype4nut on Nov 15 '07 at 1:07am

Can't afford burberry after I sprung major $ on the white ones, but these are the ones I mean
