    Not sure where to ask this...

    but does anyone know if HST will be applied to stamps after July 1st?
    Currently there's 5% GST...so will it go up to 12% for those of us in BC and ON?

    If yes...I think I'll go stock up before HST comes in effect!!

    If you have a costco membership you can get a 100 roll for $54.99. So your saving a little this way and will be well stocked up.

    For those of us in Richmond, BC...I just wanted to let you guys there's a small shop selling P stamps for $0.54 each + tax...that's still a good deal compared to the regular $0.57/stamp now.

    BTW, they are located besides Staples on No.3 Rd...it's a small coin/stamp collectors shop.

    Just saw this thread... Actually the post office is overcharging for HST at 13% in Ontario if you are mailing it to a province like Alberta, they should be charging you 5% only (this applies to those prepaid envelopes too). I encourage everyone to file a claim using this form: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/E/pbg/gf/gs...189-09-10e.pdf after doing their holiday mailings this year (don't forget to pay an extra 2% on the cards you send to Nova Scotia). Good luck!
