O Canada!

Back when I was a kid in Newfoundland, I wandered into a Shopper's Drug Mart and saw the SNES game Vegas Stakes for....

wait for it...

103.99 plus tax (which, by the way, was more than 19% in the province at the time)

I didn't buy it.

And this doesn't even factor in inflation. When you take a $100 SNES game, add the 19% sales tax, ($119) then factor in inflation, you come out to $172 in today's dollars. All that for some SNES games that have a playthrough length of only a few hours.
