Shipping from the US to Canada

As Canadians, we sometimes need to access the great country to our south for their $cheaper goods and services, and of course that means bras! 

Here are two links from bratabase with information re: cheap sending! 

Shipping from US to Canada, bratabase post

Catching Arrows: All about Shipping blog post 

Note: what is this that Catching Arrows uses from PayPal? E.g., you can mail package (return packages) using paypal instead of the post office? Maybe you can't do it anymore, but will have to read up about it, but according to Catching Arrows, paypal has the cheapest option for shipping. 

Addendum: I'm not sure why, but I tried to calculate shipping on a 87 gram, 11in x 7 in package. It was cheaper to mail it the to the U.S. using this method (PayPal shipping, which ended up using UPS, but at least it is tracked)



$9.58 cad to mail it to Chicago, also it's tracked and shipped in only 4 days. 


$14.93 cad to ship within Canada, also it takes longer (6 days vs 4 days). 

This package was actually way cheaper when I went into the Post Office and sent this package (11 in x 7 inches, 87 grams) with the letters. $2.04 cad, not tracked though. YMMV! When I tried to use Canada Post online, it was charging me $17 something. Sooooooo, no.
