Default Order from US

I've ordered stuff from the US - including Bulk Reef Supply - and sent it to Ship Happens. It's in Sumas so for you folks in the city it might be a little far but to those in Surrey, White Rock, and the Valley its great!. It's a company that has a US postal address. You use your name with their address and send it to them. Hop across the border, pick-up your stuff for $4.00 (they have to make a living too) then cross back. I park and walk across in Abbotsford. The 176 crossing isn't far either. Even if (depends on the Border Agent - heh) I pay GST and PST it sure beats the shipping cost the Bulk Reef charges you to Canada. After all, they ship for free in teh states I believe! Check it out: http://www.shiphappenssumas.com/
Maybe theres one near the Peace Arch too?? So for a little bit of your time (I've done it in an hour walking across) you do save some money! Hhmm....I wonder what the Border Services would think of a group order with all those chemicals????
