My brother asked for my help getting an advent calendar for my niece. He was looking to spend $25 to $30 on it. My nephew is getting a Lego advent calendar while my brother was hoping to get a "Polly Pocket", "Hello Kitty", or "Littlest Petshop" one for my niece. I found the Polly Pocket one on Amazon.com (U.S. store) and it was only $16.99. Perfect. So I logged in, put the calendar in my cart, got to the checkout and it came out to $56.82. So it put on almost $40 in shipping and handling charges!!!!!
Polly Pocket:
Littlest Pet Shop:
Hello Kitty:
So all three exist, and all three are for sale at Amazon.com, but none of them are available through Amazon.ca.
I tried e-bay.ca as well. There are a few on e-bay.com, but they all say "no shipping outside USA". I tried some online stores that specialize in advent calendars too, but to no avail. Any ideas? Anywhere I could possibly check within Canada?
