Postal Trick
Many online stores will only ship to the United States and Canada. But this website claims to have a way to trick most automatic shipping systems into shipping your purchases to other countries too:
- Enter the complete address, including the country and zip code, in the address field (using the extra lines that are provided).
- Enter “Canada” as the country along with a valid Canadian city and zip code.
- When you package arrives in that city, the postal workers see it’s a mistake and forward it to you.
I’m not necessarly advocating this practice … but I’m curious if it would really work. I’m tempted to go onto Amazon and make a $5 order!
