    ALWAYS claim. You don't want to be THAT GUY who gets pulled in for a $50 savings...

    The guys at the border are not dumb either. They know the UPS Store exists, and if you go over, then come back within the same time frame, they KNOW you have something. Let's be serious, Ogdensburg is not a tourist destination. HAHA!

    Just want to emphasis this point. Always always declare the goods that you purchased or received. Not only are undeclared goods subject to seizure, so is your car that was used to transport the goods.

    It simply is not worth it. Moreover, for amount less than say $100 or so, the officer may not send you in to pay HST. This depends on the officer, his or her mood for the day, etc. so your experiences can vary significantly from one day to the next and from one person to the next.

    Went to get a $70 purchase. Showed the invoice to the officer and he said: Have a good day
