Live in Canada traveling to US first time ?

I have a Scotia Bank account in BC. I am going to be traveling across the line for some fall shopping. Can I use my debit card in the states although its from Canada? Do I have to contact my bank and make specifications, will it work at all cause the currency difference? Help I’m so confused.
