We found out this summer that if you know someone at Canada Customs at the local border crossing (we do) then you can have US stuff shipped to their local US address and then have it cleared into Canada. I never thought of using it to get my Whirley-pop, but now that you mention it....
I'll probably ask Santa to get it for me now.....

Well, now could I have known about that, since I cannot ever fit into the "Real Men" catagory ....but now that you have let that little secret out to us galley rats, I have put it on my list of things to try next spring!
