Local Loblaws have posted signs announcing their Customer Appreciation Sale Saturday July 14, 2012, when the whole group of Loblaws related stores will offer an HST holiday, Many things do not attract HST but for all the rest, plus heavy items like barbecues, the deal applies. There’s a footnote that there are other rules. The Appreciation Day is being held at Loblaws and Valu-mart, as well as Zehrs and other stores. Loblaws has also unleashed some robo-calls in connection with this sale. The calls are going to those who carry the President’s Choice Mastercard. Hope they don’t do that too often. Are grocery stores exempt from the Do Not Call list? Maybe robo-calls aren’t considered a call. Anyway, keep in mind that tax free really means that Loblaws has reduced their prices and both you and Loblaws still have to pay the tax on the reduced price items, whatever that works out to.
