Ross, Banana Republic did the no tax thing.
Walmart, DKNY taxed me.
Just go to the cashier and ask if they will honour the no tax for BC residents.

They were 50% off of everything, but didn't allow you to combine with any other discounts.

Walmart sales person gave me a heads up that they, too, will honor this no tax policy starting tomorrow (July 15th)
I don't know the truthfulness in it nor do I stand by it, but that is what I heard when I was down for formula drift 4 days ago.

Was at Macy's in Seattle on Sat they honoured the no tax, but the premium outlets weren't yesterday. When at the Nike store, the guy there said as of Friday they blocked the no tax thing so we did have to pay tax AND that any province it applied to before the July 1st proposal for no tax (eg. Alberta) was going to have to start paying taxes; so now all canadians have to pay their sales tax. FTL

it's only an 8.6% so it's still cheaper if you were planning to shop down there anyhow, but it would've been nicer to NOT have to pay taxes.

costco/target/walmart all had taxes. no exemptions. i was there for weekend and was at various locations; tulalip, auburn, tukwila and tacoma.
some of the stores at the outlet also had no exemptions.
one saleslady at ben bridges said that the tax exemption was officially revoked for most provinces except alberta and sask., and stores that end up honouring the no tax thing end up paying for the tax exemption.

The last couple pages had people saying that it was up to the store to issue the exemption or not. It's extended to the whole state now.
fuuuu indeed.

Blame the people of Whatcom county and the City of Bellingham.
