So I finally got together an order from truejeans.com, as Grumperina is wonderful and has a discount code on her blog. I’ve been stalking the site for weeks, but waiting has paid off. Despite some styles I wanted being sold out in my size now (sob!) the Canadian dollar is higher than it has been in forever. As the coupon runs out at the end of this month, I decided to bite the bullet (or credit card) and do it.
I got the shipping part of the checkout process. I won’t be ordering.

Postage to Canada? Between $60-72 dollars. Most of the jeans on my ‘wishlist’ were $68. Sorry, but no. When someone decideds to splurge on a pair of jeans, they don’t want the postage to be worth another pair of jeans.

I realise that rates have changed, etc, but there has to be a cheaper way, doesn’t there? I don’t need them tomorrow. And I definitely don’t need UPS and all their random extra charges. Brokerage fee? Isn’t that included in the $60 I am paying?

I guess this means I have to go jeans shopping in person. ugh. Honestly, I much prefer bathing suit shopping. And as any woman will tell you, that’s something.
