Nope. You'll save 15% of what the TMNT figures cost, then get hit by the 13% of tax since the discount and tax aren't additive, so you'd actually save a bit more than 2% in the sense you're thinking of. But since tax is always a factor, it doesn't really seem fair to calculate discount that way. It'd be like saying the regular price of items is 113% of its regular price.

For fun, (+ and - of % aren't literal, of course)
$10 + 13% = $11.30 // Item's regular price with tax
$(10 - 15%) + 13% = $8.5 + 13% = $9.6 // Item's sale price with tax
$(11.30 - 9.6) / $11.30 = $1.70 / $11.30 = 15.04% // total discount after sale and tax

So you're in fact saving a tiny bit more than 15% (though this is negligible) after you account for tax.

In Ontario, today and tomorrow at RCSS, you don't pay any taxes at all (certain items exempted of course but Toys are still applicable). I saw it in their weekly flyer. Pretty sweet eh ?

That seems alright, especially for non toys.

Also, just went to a Target, Marvel Legends and Marvel Mashers are NOT on sale.
