As the Canada "tax holiday" starts, Walmart increased the price of an item by the amount I would have saved
Canada has implemented a new tax savings from December to February for some things like taxable groceries, crafts, and gaming physical media. I wanted to get a new Xbox controller and found the best price at Walmart for $55 a week ago. The tax holiday starts today and I now see that the $55 has increased to $62 and change, which is about how much tax I should be saving. Great to see this thinly veiled attempt to help Canadians ( /s - win votes) is just going to be extra profit in the corporations' pockets.

What about other stores?

They're $75+ elsewhere. And I refuse to buy from sketchy "marketplace" sellers on sites like Best Buy where I see reviews saying they're used but advertised as new, missing components, etc.
Did the price go up in other stores as well when the tax holiday came into effect?
