No matter how you celebrated Canada Day, whether it was feasting on a tasty backyard BBQ, beach side volleyball, or a pool party; you couldn’t avoid the inevitability of the HST implementation. With the hype, anticipation and implications, it seemed like dooms day was coming on the 1st of July.
I was stressed, researched out, and anticipating my little GumDrops world to cave in as I knew it. But as I started to create and execute my “to do” list I realised that it was as anticlimactic as Y2K…pshhh what was all the anxiety about?It took me less than 20 Minutes to have our POS system up to snuff…and the website was a little more intense, but nothing earth shattering.
I did however find some great retail reference material as well as a very funny “tongue in cheek” T-shirt about the HST. ” Support the HST or my daddy will have to sell the private jet”….my book keeper definitely laughed hard at this one…..they also have some other great T-shirts as well….visit fighting words store….and support a new local company with a conscience. Even though they are completing the final touches to their site it’s still worth the peek……while you are at it tell them what your fight is!!!
