well that's how you got a holiday to NZ. give it a month and then casually mention that you're thinking of moving into cosmetics...

[Suavee-Bolo]

So how many Loonies is that?

[HEIRESS]

pffffft its at 94 cents to the american dollar right now.
so if I go shopping south of the border shit seems practically half price to me for the most part since our dollar is so ridiculously high.

it was at 96 cents earlier this week (a 30 year high) and then dropped down suddenly.
though that makes sense because all the precious metals experienced a huge drop this week and Canada is so huge into the mining industry this reflects badly on our dollar.

there was also a wee assaying scandal last week where unbacked results were used on the stock market which reflects badly on everyone in the business and therefore on canadian mining company stocks.

We're getting over 2 dollars to the pound at the moment. When I was over there last month it was like Happy Hour in Poundland!

Last time I was in Canada it was somewhere around $1.40 Canadian to $1.00 American.

Shit's kind of depressing.


Isn't there a war Bush could start somewhere to give our economy a boost

[HEIRESS]

it was probably two-fold depressing because 6-packs are about 12 dollars here instead of 4 like in the states

[Suavee-Bolo]

No wonder Bob & Doug tried to put that mouse in the bottle of Elsinore.

[HEIRESS]

Our aussie dollar is somewhere near 90 us cents too.

4 bucks for a 6 pack???? Jesus!!! 12 dollars here too.

I don't know what else to contribute to this thread as I just woke up and am feeling kind of squishy.

In my area(Philly), 6-ers cost around $6, a case is around $20-$25.

I hit a nice sale this weekend though, got a case of Bud bottles for $12.50.
