It seems crazy, but one option in the future would be to call an SA at each store that is going to have an item you want, and have them put it aside for you beforehand. Or would that mean even more shipping costs? Am I getting obsessed again
And I must be NAS crazed. Why am I reading the Canadian posts?
Oh, my.

Haha, Barbara Diane, you never know. Moving to Canada is becoming an attractive option for many Americans...and we welcome you. But I must admit, the shopping is a lot worse here.

The thing is, we have no way of knowing which stores will have which items in which sizes. At least until the sale begins. Right now, we don't have access to the sale at all (except I do, because I have a US card, ha!). The SA was really nice about getting things sent from the other stores and said it would not be a problem -- and she had no trouble doing it for me. BUT, I will believe it when I see it, if you know what I mean. Sometimes things get lost in translation.

My SA called and got my address and credit card info. He's going to pull together the items that are in the Ottawa store and ship them to me tomorrow when the sale starts. Tomorrow he'll also order items from Vancouver/Calgary. Woohoo!

Whooo hooo!!!

Yes, my SA has all my info and is doing the exact same thing. Let's compare notes, Kerry, as things continue.

Thanks for all your hard work. I have my eye on a few things. I did google them to see if I could find them somewhere else. No luck. I am a bit reluctant to shop online but it may come to that. I will wait till the sale starts and then see if they are in Canada. I also want to see what Angie recommends.
Love the items you are looking at Suz.
