What should we buy before HST? We need a strategy here, so that we can save the most.

just buy what you really need
don't just waste your $ for nothing

The price of merchandises is not going up with HST,
only services, memberships etc.
I think the tuition for non-credit courses too i.e. Yoga.
Not much I need to buy.
But the gas price was like $1.18 yesterday, god know
how much it  costs  to fill up the tank after the carbon tax kicks in

If you have lots of $$$, you can buy a new $300,000+ house/condo...you get a rebate of $20,000 max which is equivalent to 7% of the PST portion of the HST

Don't buy anything other than what you really need and those that used to be PST exempted... like vitamins?

according to the "What's exempt and what's not" list:

building material is always 12% so no change in tax after HST.

If you are buying children/kid's size clothing and shoes then they will only charge you 5%, but if the item is in adult size then it's will be the full 12% even if it's for children

When I used to buy adult clothing for children it's used to be 5% only but now would be 12%. (that affects me...)

For true children clothing it remains 5%... which doesn't concern me that much...heeheee
