Branded Kitchenware and dinnerware are little costly in the superstores like Walmart in Canada. There are small shops with less price selling non-branded items. If you have enough space in your baggage, and if you have already some usable utensils, instead of leaving them in your home country, take as much as your kitchenware, dinner ware, cotton bed sheets, cloths etc but not too many blankets and winter cloths within the allowed baggage limit. Paying excess baggage is not advised because it will not be affordable. Bring few winter cloths for immediate use. It is comparatively cheap in Canadian malls ( also cheaper at manufacturers outlets during discount sale ) with less price for better quality.

I agree with Pippin about bringing electical appliances from out side countries ( European and Asian ). Electrical appliances purchased in Canada are covered with warranty and service easily available, whereas availability of spare parts and repair is very difficult for personally imported electrical appliances. Moreover, Canadian regulation stipulates all electrical appliances must be CSA approved (Canada Safety Association) and often home insurance will not cover any damage caused by non-CSA approved appliances.
Thanks for the information.
 
LOL...can just imagine the scene in your family home the day after you leave!!! "Where's the TOASTER?"

Sometimes you can get them from garage sales in the neighborhood or community flea markets.

Thanks wilson for valuable piece of advice. The items in discussion are those which we are not buying from South Asia but which we already have it from some time and I think its not a bad idea if I want to use my laptop / mobile phone with an adaptor in Canada. Thanks
Yes, you are absolutely correct in that sense. I brought few appliances of 110 V - ( some are US brand but China made )-from Saudi Arabia, which I was using there like bread toaster, Egg boiler, Blender. They are still working fine.

What about children's hand held games, like PSP or PS VITA??

Sony PSP starts from $ 100 in Walmart. PSP Vita from $ 250 and above. But you can find cheaper on the weekly flyers distributed to each door. Price varies depending on their week end sale promotion.

If your children have them already, then bring it for them. Games can also be downloaded or available for purchase around $ 10 and above accordingly.

Check on the back of charger of games if it is compatible with 110v as guided in my initial post at start of this thread.Thanks
