I've never done the YLF SS, always afraid I wouldn't know what to get for someone, but I'm feeling carpe diem-y this year. </p> <p>Thanks for doing all the logistics, Ornella; I'm sure it's a bear at times!</p> <p>(Elizabeth P, shipping to Canada and Mexico are both cheaper from the US than sending to Europe, but not as much as it probably should be. The USPS used to have international surface mail options if you weren't in a hurry, but several years ago they got rid of them. Now everything has to go air mail no matter what.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-secret-santa-2014-how-to-play#post-1370440 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 14:03:03 +0000 Elizabeth P 1370440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks!&nbsp; Certainly don't want to make things complicated and create extra work for you, doing this is awesome.&nbsp; I just thought it was worth asking. :)&nbsp; </p> <p>In Canada, we have Canadian rates, then US rates, at slightly more, THEN International rates - which are about double the US rates.&nbsp; Didn't realize that Canada is dubbed "international" FROM the US.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-secret-santa-2014-how-to-play#post-1370353 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 09:53:22 +0000 Jjsloane 1370353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ornella you are a doll, I just sent you a message!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-secret-santa-2014-how-to-play#post-1370340 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 08:17:43 +0000 Ornella 1370340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Elizabeth ::&nbsp;</b>assuming&nbsp;you know your US pair would not pay for shipping to Canada more tha would to US address, then it's not a problem.</p> <p></p> <p>Unfortunately, having more groups than these two is just too time consuming. Perhaps if this year I manage to set everything up fast&nbsp;(and it has been much better so far then previous years, I don't need to send too many reminders and chase individuals), then next year I can consider having more sub-groups which cater for more geographical areas.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-secret-santa-2014-how-to-play#post-1370339 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 08:06:30 +0000 CocoLion 1370339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elizabeth, shipping rates&nbsp;from the US to Canada, Europe as well as many other international destinations are&nbsp;the same. &nbsp;It used to be a lot cheaper to Canada and Mexico, then they slotted them as International&nbsp;probably as a way to make money. &nbsp;I mean, it's fewer miles for me to ship to BC than it is to NY, but costs much more. &nbsp;So a new profit center for the USPS. &nbsp;</p> <p>But it's not all bad news. &nbsp;An item that is under 1 lb. can ship for around $10-11, 1st class international, which includes tracking. &nbsp;Priority mail flat rate&nbsp;is around $20, but to Canada and Western Europe&nbsp;1st class is plenty fast.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-secret-santa-2014-how-to-play#post-1370336 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 07:53:10 +0000 Elizabeth P 1370336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Question: any chance Canada can be included in the posting group with the US? Posting between our countries is only nominally more than within, however posting overseas can be much, much more. It seems a bit funny to be forced into "international". No worries if you've already considered this and it doesn't work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-secret-santa-2014-how-to-play#post-1370304 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 04:27:03 +0000 Ornella 1370304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everyone who's contacted me so far has been included in this year's game.
