Everytime I go pick up one of my kids, I see a sandwich board next to this funeral home. And it says, "buy now and save the HST!" Yes, it's true, I could save on funeral costs. But it sounds so tacky. The message I hear is, "you're going to kick the can soon, so why wait?" Shudder. My dad would just be appalled to see that sign.
But really, it is almost as expensive to die than to live these days which is slightly ironic. The cost of a funeral is high. In my younger days, I was all for the coffin, etc. And now, I just think it's so over done. I really have thought about cremation instead. The thought is, I can also be wherever I need to be after my death. Hee hee. I'm portable. I'm not sure if my family will be nearby as they may move away to other places and they couldn't easily come and visit.
Hopefully, I have many more years to think of this stuff. I'm going to pass on saving on the HST this time around. Thanks.
