In addition to web-based options, there are numerous businesses in communities just across the US-Canada border which have found a sideline in accepting parcels on behalf of Canadian clients who want items that can’t be shipped outside of the United States.
Today, we visited the local bar in Fortuna, North Dakota (pop: 22) to retrieve one such parcel for the grand sum of $2 Canadian.
(Okay, we also had to pay for gas – and if you’re being niggly, also our time – to make the two-hour round trip from Weyburn. But still a pretty good deal if you have no other options!)
