Default Best Places for Canucks to Shop In Bellingham to Seattle Area ?

Can some of you readers kindly advise the best places to shop,
in the area Bellingham to Seattle?

Places that sell electronics, fashion clothing, household electronics,
computers, and the like for much better pricing than the rip-offs in
canuckistan?

With the Canadian peso now equal to US Dollar, have stocked up from bank,
and ready to go on shopping spree where my money is welcomed, where
price-fixing is illegal.

I guess people in Vancouver and Calgary will probably be giving best advice,
since they are closer to cross-border shopping.

Lots of great stuff at great prices, to be sure. Here's a friendly warning,
however. If you make a trip to Renton because you see a killer deal in one
of their full-page ads, you may discover when you get there that it's out
of stock. Yes, they will reluctantly give you a rain check, but there's no
guarantee that, when you make another trip to Renton, it won't be out of
stock again.

If you're into musical instruments, here's a recommendation for a place with
killer prices, and totally on the level: Hugo Helmer Music in Mount Vernon.

A broad selection, for sure. However, not always the cheapest prices,
especially when it comes to cameras and appliances. I've found that many of
the chain stores (Circuit City, Target, Fred Meyer) will beat Fry's on
common items. On the other hand, Fry's will have many electronic-related
items that are hard to find elsewhere.
