It's cheaper from US retailers online by more than half. I ship it to Blaine since it's a 45 minute drive from where I live in Canada. Plus, if its made in USA, its tax free. At least for now that is; the new NAFTA deal hasn't been ratified by the US house of representatives after they walked away from the negotiating table last June. I'm still unsure why it happened that way, since the new deal gives the US more access to Canadian dairy and Auto-manufacturing markets, the two things they were fighting for.
Long story short, now's the time to buy Kodak Tmax 100 at $80 US tax-free for a bulk roll rather than $240 Cad plus 12% tax, before things go south!
