CANADIAN OOT BAG info...where to shop!

For some reason, I got my government cheques in the mail today!!!

I think that when you order from Oriental trading that it will come from UPS or purolator, I could be wrong but I dont think they use canada post because they are american arent they?

So I saw on another thread that a Bride had emailed the Jamaican Tourist Board and asked for a tour guide! So, I did the same, for each couple... I asked them if they would mind sending 37 copies of their tour guides and anything they had with information on Jamaica, they mailed them via Fedex, and they will be arriving next week! I thought this would be a great thing to put in my OOT bags, and the best part were, they are FREE!  For those not going to Jamaica, you should search for the tourist board for where you are visiting and ask them if you can have the same, or contact the hotel and ask what they carry for magazines, the one magazine company I emailed said they can have enough waiting at the hotel for me specifically when I arrive!
