I find buddy's quote at the end amusing: Quote: |

Seattle Premium Outlets being bitches pretending they don't know about the tax exemption. Bellevue Square stores like Nordstrom are still doing the tax exemption. They're also having their anniversary sale til the 1st of August so pretty good shit going on down there.
This was yesterday BTW

Damn it, I'll be in Seattle July 30-Aug 1. By then, all the good stuff might be gone and more and more places might stop honoring the no-tax thing.

There is no longer any tax exemption if anybody is still curious. NO store in Seattle Premium did it and neither did Hollister / A&F / Forever21.

I posted this somewhere but basically the exemption was overturned so that ALL canadians (whether from BC, AB, Sask, etc) pay the tax; no one is suppose to be exempt. This is what I was told by someone at the Nike Outlet, who said it came into effect as of July 16 and if any shops give you an exemption they are paying the taxes themselves then.

I was over at the Tulalip Outlets last weekend and many of the stores didn't allow the tax exemption. Only a couple of them did  | |
