Frank,

If I wanted to buy the SportRack Super Touring A1145 @ $174.95 CND or $99.95
USD with my Canadian dollarettes in my pocket, it would be cheaper for me to
go to the bank and get a US money order for $99.95 US.  This would only cost
me $147.53 Cdn. at today's exchange rate of $1.46, a savings of $27.42.  I'm
sure this is not what you intended?
