Please join us for our shopping weekend to tax-free Pennsylvania. 

We do want to caution you! This tour is called the "Shop, shop, shop till you drop" tour. We're not kidding! Although you will be very tired when you get back to Toronto, it will have been totally worth it. Sometimes the prices at the outlet malls in Pennsylvania are so low, they're just plain silly! And there's no sales tax in PA on clothes, children's products and many other categories!
​
We hope you will join us on these tours, they tend to sell out every year.
