No different than fueling up the car, if you know the next gas station is 300 Miles away!



It's called being a [size=150]responsible adult[/size]!

A responsible adult does not drink to excess.

Yes! Got hooked about 4 summers ago.



Around $29.50 a dozen Canadian; or $15 US a dozen. So I bought 3 dozen in the US for cheaper than 2 dozen up here!

That is a big price difference..



What is the limit you are allowed to bring across the border?

Superchecker

I think they allow just a 6 pack for under 48 hours; and a dozen (or 2) for over 48 hours.

Duties and Taxes on Canadians returning to Canada

The amount of your personal exemption is dependant on how long you were out of the country.  In 2012 Canada changed exemption limits to more closely match those of the U.S.



Less than 24 hours: No allowances or exemptions can be claimed. You will pay full duties for an over-and-back shopping trip.

Between 24 hours and 48 hours: You may bring in up to $200 worth of goods free of duty and taxes. However, there is no exemption for alcohol or tobacco.

Over 48 Hours: You may bring in up to $800 worth of goods which may cover a portion of your alcohol and tobacco expenditures. Exemption limits are:

Liquor: 1.14 L (40 oz.) of liquor; or 1.5 L of wine; or 24 times 355 ml (8.5 L) containers of beer.

 tobacco products may be imported free of duty and taxes (when stays are more than 48 hours): 200 cigarettes; 50 cigars or cigarillos; 200 tobacco sticks; and 200 g (7 oz.) of manufactured tobacco (a special duty fee might be applicable).

All liquor or tobacco items must be with you when you arrive at point of entry.

All liquor or tobacco items must be with you when you arrive at point of entry.


Thanks for the clarification. Looks like I'm allowed 24 beer if down over 48 hours?



I know that they typically don't bother collecting duties on a 6 pack.

I  hope you were honest and reported that you had more beer than the duty free amount. :laugh3:

That's good because I derive no pleasure from reporting dishonest travellers to the CBSA, ac_toofunny
