cheap shipping to ontario, canada

[tigermom]

      Greetings,
               Can anyone suggest a website and/or a company that ships inexpensively to Ontario, Canada?
 My 2 daughters are in all-star cheerleading, and I would like to purchase them some cheer t-shirts, socks, accessories that aren't available in Canada. The problem I have found is that a t-shirt may cost $12, and it is $10 to ship it. I have also seen sites that cost up to $10 per item to ship to Canada. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
               Also, any suggestions on a better way to remove eye glitter, other than the standard make up remover ? It often takes alot of rubbing and still doesn't get it all on the 1st try.
   Looking forward to the Queen of the Nile in Cinncinatti next week!
                                                                    Cheers

Hello,
How close are you to the american border? I live on the St. Lawrence River, on the american side, about 40 min from Ottawa. Usually the canadians over here have a post office box on the american side and have things shipped there and then just pop over and pick it up. Do you have friends or family stateside that can take shipments?
The postage is quite ridiculous even shipping something that is 5 minutes over the river from here.
