Thread Name: BS: Drug purchases in Canada by U.S. folk
Subject: RE: BS: Drug purchases in Canada by U.S. folk
Clinton,

That first trip was with a friend who has bought Rx stuff across the border (she lives 8 blocks south of the International Boundary so does much of her shopping in B.C.), and we decided it wasn't going to be a problem. Telling them I'd bought it wasn't a risk, more of a test balloon. If you don't tell them and they check is when you get into trouble. Bringing back something around $125 (Canadian) in medication isn't a big purchase in the world of pharmaceuticals, but it would have cost me three times that down here.

Anyone have experience with bringing amounts across for personal use? If Canadian Mudcatters (BTW, thanks, Clinton!) are willing to make an extra purchase next time they're in the grocery store and pop it in the mail, that's one way. But to get it all over with in one shot, to purchase enough for six months or a year, is there a trick to it?

SRS
