Yup, I did that too. I wasn't complaining that the USians were getting a
good deal, I was grumbling about the outrageous shipping rates that eToys
applies, which makes it *so* not worthwhile even looking at their deals if
you live in Canada.
The best price I got for a 1200 piece tub was about $15 CAD - about this
time last year, TRU marked them down to $20, and I was able to use a $5.00
coupon. I bought about 6 of them, I think. (ran out of coupons!) :)

Lego coupons this year.)
