If I have a parcel shipped to a po box..

Just across the border, do I need to declare it as items I bought when I come back? Somehow I think not but someone I know said that I have to or it will be taken away..I know some of you do this to save on the shipping fees so I figured you all would know!
The total value is $60 for the 2 packages.
TIA

Hmm..I think you do??

I use an address in Lewiston that I ship to and I declare those pkgs when I return to Canada. More often than not, they send me on through but every once in a while, I do pay the taxes on it. On that amount, it's peanuts anyways

Good to know! My parents are heading over so they are picking it up for me, but they h a t e to go over their personal allowance so they are freaking out I spent *so* much.. I think I should pick it up next time! way way way less stress that way!
