I know :-(

Especially when Canadian stores have US prices, like Soft Moc. GRRR.

I hear you! It has totally put a damper on my online shopping, suddenly Sierra Trading Post isn't as much of a screaming deal....sigh.....

I got used to the dollar being at (or close to) par and was merrily buying stuff on eBay. Totally sucks now, though. I just bought a pair of Hanna leggings on eBay for $15.99 plus $5.50 shipping (yeah, probably got hosed there) and the Paypal exchange calculator thing came up with a little over $28! :hopmad: I think I might have to hold off on eBay for a little while!

To be honest, I haven't looked at the exchange rate in awhile for that reason!
