R2R, can you expound upon this? Did you expect rock-bottom pricing just because it was TGT? I'm also not familiar with the corporate tax situation in Canada vs. the US. I wouldn't think there would be a difference in GST/HST either. I'm really baffled.
When I used to visit TO & MTL a lot, I used to peruse the shopping mecca's just to see new-to-me product lines and didn't see merchandising too out of whack with what I see locally. Maybe I was distracted by the French-Canadian women (
oooh-la-la ) strolling down Rue St. Catherine in the warmer weather. 
Of course, we also don't have a Timmie's or Canadian Tire on every corner either.
