A tip from a SDMB user led me to [Woot.com](http://Woot.com), where I bought a great birthday gift for my son and sent it to him in Pennsylvania. Now I get the Woot emails, and boy are there some good deals.

However, anything I put in my shopping cart, even something as innocuous as sheets, generates the message “this item cannot be shipped to Hawaii.”

Does anyone know if this is product-specific (hard to believe given the range of products I’ve clicked on), or if it generally applies to everything they sell? Is it always this way or is it a temporary situation related to Covid 19?

If they simply don’t ship any products to Hawaii, either temporarily or permanently, I wish the message would just say “We do not ship to Hawaii” instead of “_this item_ can’t be shipped to Hawaii” which is misleading.

Grumble, grumble. It’s (one, not the only) price of living in paradise.

From the FAQ on [Woot.com](http://Woot.com) =

**Why isn’t my state/country/province listed; do you ship internationally?**  
With the exception of Shirt.Woot!, we do not currently ship outside of the contiguous 48 United States. Certain sales or products may not be eligible to ship to specific states. At this time, we do not ship to Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, or Mexico.

If the deals are good enough you might want to look into a shipping service like [Shipito](https://www.shipito.com/en/)that can give you a different US address then forward packages on to you.
