Favourite Canadian on-line gift shopping

I’m looking for some suggestions for on-line sites that ship from Canada. I’m trying to get some unique stuff for Christmas gifts, so I’m looking for stuff along the lines of www.mcphee.com (Archie McPhee) or www.thinkgeek.com I don’t mind ordering from the US, but this time of year, I’d like to avoid potential custom fees and duty shipping slow-downs.

Have you looked at Images of Canada? They have beautiful stuff, and are (as the name indicates) Canadian.

www.imagesofcanada.com

I bought a pin from them a couple of months ago, and was pleased with their service.

Trailer Park Boys official store, for your favorite pothead geek :stuck_out_tongue:

RedFlagDeals.com is a site dedicated to finding things on sale. This is Canadian and there is lots of discussion of online retailers as well as bricks-and-mortar retailers. Occassionally there will be discussion of getting stuff from the US, but typically it is canuck-centric.

Read the forums for discussions about deals that haven’t made the front page.

Do you have more sites like that? That’s the kind of thing I’ve been looking for, too.

If you want kitchen stuff or battery chargers, you can find them here.

You could go uber-Canadian

:smiley:

Thanks, guys! www.imagesofcanada.com has some beautiful stuff, and the Trailer Park Boys site is definitely unique. Any more suggestions?

I don’t whether it’s geeky or not but try lee valley - they have some interesting stuff like musical instruments played by hand; unusual games.
