Mike, You're absolutely right. I completely overlooked the fact the price was marked as CDN$.
I was actually looking at the package price for WRTH and Passport -- $35.38 vs CDN$39.63, both of which meet the super-saver criteria of the two sites for free shipping -- and when this is converted for the currency, the difference is a whopping 92 cents to the Canadian advantage. The "no biggey" becomes a "nothing at all" when it's all said and done. Shouldn't try to think so early in the morning, difficult enough at my best time of day. Thanks for setting me straight.

Amazon.com lists the WRTH at $19.77US and Amazon.ca lists it at >$21.39CAN. The exchange rate is somewhere around 1.15.

As you said, not a biggy. > >Mike in St Isidore, AB _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
