Import

How much are we allowed to bring with us "tax free" from the US? We have some stuff, not too much, that we're bringing (i.e., printer/copier, DVD player, new linens). At what point do we need to make a list, bring receipts, etc.? Thanks for your input.

How are you arriving?
The limit is different for car and plane

We are driving, crossing at TJ, where we will get our FM3s stamped.

I am no expert as I have not crossed the border in quite some time but I believe that the limit is $50 per person.
That said, I doubt I would declare any of things you listed if they are used. As for the linens, take them out of the bags. Thats sneaky but not seriously illegal, I dont think. Heck wash them a few times.
I am sure that there is a site to tell you the exact rules. Maybe someone else can be more specific.
