the internation shipping seemed reasonable. they won't have any control over customs though. you should picket your government's offices to demand duty-free for quiters. :lol:

What bugs me about the whole customs thing is this... IF I didn't live on this island and could drive across the border and shop everyday I wouldn't get dinged. But I Do live on an island so my only option is to shop on line... and they charge me duty.

More discrimination against Newfoundland I say! :wink:

Maybe a bunch of us need to take a "road trip" with cars full of fabric and visit you. :)

I like that idea! And I know of a few other islanders who'd like it too!

Ok, all of us that live on islands, we have to clear room so those that live on mainland states/countries, they can buy TONS of fabric and come visit us.
Who is game???

Do you know of any islanders here in the city that would like to take a quilting course next week??? I have a Trip Around the World class starting Monday night. I need a minimum of 4 people to have a class.. I have 3 so far.... I reeeeeeeeally want to teach next week. It is a four week course and they can register at the H.G.R. Mews Centre on Mundy Pond Road!!!

sounds like a plan to me!! Maybe Marine Atlantic might give all the mainlanders a good deal as they are all coming to the islands here to deliver tons and tons of fabric!!

I also agree with you earlier suggestion.. ROAD TRIP!!!!!!

Once I get back to the mainland US, I'm GOING on a roadtrip. This island living is killing me! First it was the island of Oahu, now Guam. From one island to another, and a smaller one to boot! UGH!!
So, 21 months to go and I BETTER get to a bigger area or hubby is going to be one sad man! lol
