One-Day Buffalo Shopping Trip: Discount Outlets, Box Stores and Grocery Stores

A spring shopping trip to Buffalo is practically an adventure! After making the short drive from Toronto, there are numerous stores to explore; three of the most popular being Walmart, Target, and Wegmans.

But if you're after something special, a stop at Wegmans just can't be beat for their huge selection of gourmet foods and local produce!

Shopping Allowance

Many of you ask what the duty-free or shopping allowance is. The answer is this is a one-day trip so there is no duty-free allowance but also no shopping limit, you can spend as much as you wish. You will be required to pay HST and possibly duty on all your purchases.

​Just to give you an idea, if you purchased $500 worth of goods, you may be required to pay $65 HST when you cross back into Canada. Additionally duty may apply for certain categories of goods such as luxury goods, watches, jewellery etc.
