ie. You have to spend a lot to end up saving a lot.

The average person who spends little is not going to see a difference.
no to mention it is a tax break for the lowest income earners that a income tax break would not help them AT ALL. If you make less then the exepted amount, no income tax break will help at all as you already do not pay it. That said it was a wiser political move to cut the GST than a wise economic one.
