i do travel down to the US pretty often so freeport is convenient since i just pick my packages on the way down or on the way up. and with an $800 allowance for stays longer than 48 hours, you can bring quite a bit of stuff into the country without having to pay any taxes/duties.
but i agree that its only convenient when u have a lot of stuff to pick up. no point going down there just to grab one package. oh and when i go down, i never forget to refuel the car too... since US gas is like 25% cheaper than what we pay here in QC.
