    Okay, I just started doing some online shopping (yes, total newcomer but just got my first credit card!). I really like boutique like stores that sell unique items.

    Where do other people shop online?

    I tend to buy from asos because it has free shipping to Canada but the downside are the customs and duties so try to order less than 50 dollars and cross your fingers
    Sizing is mainly uk so check the size chart for us

    Amazon.ca

    • Cheaper than Chapters.ca
    • Not just books but music, video, games, cameras, computers, GPS, watches home and garden

    Try using a place in the us to ship your orders to if you are ordering from a u.s. Company. Pacific !Mail and parcel in Blaine is a good place to send your stuff to. Then you pick it up and if the value is less than a few hundred dollars there is probably no taxes to be paid.

    I didn't realized there is a asos.. not until I read the other post.

    For clothing, if from USA, I'll buy from Eddie Bauer. Returns are accepted in the local stores in the lower mainland.

    Mail and parcel - Is that the name of the store?

    How do they work? How much they charge?

    What other such stores in Blaine that can accept parcels for Canadians?
