I was browsing the JoAnn website and found an announcement saying that they've partnered with a company called eShopWorld to offer international shipping to more than 30 countries, including Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Canada. (Including those four specifically since we have a lot of Peas from there, due to the English-centric focus of most scrapbooking companies.) I know that international peas often are sad that they miss out on the great sales and exclusive products that US craft chain stores offer so I thought I'd share. According to this chart, Canada and the UK aren't too bad ($11 or $12 for standard shipping) but Australia/NZ can only get express shipping for $30, yikes! Anyway, I don't know if this will end up being a good deal for international peas, but with the exception of Michael's and Canada, it's the first time I've been aware of a big box chain offering international shipping, so I thought it was newsworthy.

I found out when someone mentioned it in the comments on a recent Shimelle live, but promptly forgot about it. I think $30 shipping is not terrible, especially if it's a flat rate. By comparison, one stamp set from FYC cost $16 (when they used to ship here), and I've paid as much as $60 for shipping from FJ.
To be honest, I'm probably more excited about getting access to some of their halloween fabrics which are better than what we typically get here.

Ooh, They ship to Germany, and it's only $13 standard/$26 express which isn't too bad when translated to Euro. Of course, I'll probably have to pay customs for the pleasure of getting my stuff into the country.

- I only shop from scrapbook.com because their shipping to Australia is reasonable. $30 shipping counts me out

Ohhh thanks for the heads up. I had a quick look and not much tickled my fancy at this point but just having another option is great.

Hmm $30 isn't great but it's nice to have another option for shopping, particularly as the selection here seems to get smaller all the time.
