In fact, the so-called cheapness of many things in Canada is based on their own local prices. For example, I am a student. Buying a toothbrush is 1-2 Canadian dollars here, while Converse canvas shoes are about 50-100 Canadian dollars, so it is relatively cheap.
In fact, compared with China, it seems that it is also a famous brand of clothes, Hermes stuff.
Thebodyshop’s tea tree oil is 9 Canadian dollars a bottle here, and more than 50 bottles in China, which is similar.
However, if some products here are not available in China, you should not consider too much about the price.
If there is any more cost-effective, digital products are relatively cost-effective.
Cosmetics are MAC, at least this is the country of origin of MAC rather than madeinchina.
Apple’s Iphone 4 is sold naked here (all paid by yourself, no contract) at 659, and after 13% tax, it is 670. At the current exchange rate, it is more than 4,000 or less than 5,000. I think if you really want to buy something cost-effective, you still need to buy it. It doesn’t mean that all products of any brand are more expensive or cheaper than China. It is best to ask yourself what you want, and then come up with a cost-effective one.
Or ask your friends to see if there are any brands that are on sale.
Moreover, local people know that the best time to buy things is January or February every year, which is a good time to buy things in Canada, because things are relatively cheaper during this time period.
What gifts are good to go to Canada to see friends buy?
Canadian cigarettes are all mixed cigarettes, and they are very expensive. Generally, they are not used to smoking, so if your friend smokes, you can consider bringing a cigarette from a duty-free shop.
Tea, especially green tea, there is really no good green tea in Canada (even imported Chinese green tea is very ordinary). Although Canada states that it does not allow animal and plant products to enter customs, tea is still fine.
