Today begins the tax holiday, and it’s so much fun altering our website for it. Since a lot of the rules of what can, and cannot be charged taxes on, is murky at best, we are just doing tax free on all toys and video games. Most likely statues as well. Comics already have tax included.
As for the website, the rules there are also weird. In short, Ontario, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island all have harmonized sales tax (HST) Therefore, our site will not add taxes to any of those provinces. The rest of the country however, we still have to collect the PST, as the GST is waived for the next two months.
There’s a 1-800 number that businesses can call for more clarity since this isn’t really a cut and dry thing – but it’s not open until 8am Monday. Yay government!
So anyway, come and get all those Christmas gifts checked off those lists, or come grab a few gifts for yourself, and save the tax!
