BF is an annual event for me. We drive from Nova Scotia to Portland, Maine on Thursday night just in time to arrive at the hotel and then over to the mall for 1am shopping. We don't stop until the following afernoon/evening, sleep, drive to Bangor and shop the next day (Saturday) all day and the drive home Saturday night. Its totally exhausting and worth every minute of it.
Even when the exchange was 1.60 we went, so this year its fantastic (finally) although I fear the deals may not be as good....maybe its all just in my head.
Its not such a big deal to claim more than what you're allowed, they don't charge much on what you bring back, although I never knew about all the exemptions until they were talking about it on the radio. I must look those up.
