To all the consumers of Windsor/ Essex county. Working a retail job, I never hear the end of how "this is an emergency purchase, I'd much rather buy in the US." Then proceeding to tell me how terrible everything is in our current economy. Why are US prices good? Yes, the dollar is one reason. Canadian prices suck because you don't spend here. No jobs for your kids? You don't spend your money here, therefore it can't aid in economic growth!! Bottom line is, you want to keep your town in business? Keep your business in town. Otherwise things will never change.
