The United States has some great stores for vintage and one of a kind swim wear. Today we are featuring a few of our favorite suits from some of the top US shops.
We recently had a customer ask us the best place to buy Scented Candles in the US. Luckily, many of our female Goopping employees are big candle buyers and could offer real feedback.
Currently, our number one pick for wonderful smelling candles that will last the longest is Yankee Candle.
You can view their current sale by visiting them at www.yankeecandle.com

Upon reading concerns from many of our Aussie friends, we have noticed a common question: “How do I shop from US Amazon, (or Amazon.com) when I live in Australia?”
Many times the U.S. version of Amazon carries more products than Amazon.AU. Or it simply has lower prices on items than the Aussie version. So what is to be done?
As an Australian, you can shop from the US Amazon and get your purchases shipped to you by using Goopping’s package forwarding service. Oft times Amazon won’t ship a product to a country other than the United States. Sometimes they simply will not let customer’s make a purchase from them unless the billing address on their credit card matches the shipping address on the order.
What Goopping’s package forwarding service does is give you a shipping address in the US that you can enter on Amazon. This way, Amazon has a US address to ship your purchases to. When your items get to our Goopping warehouse, we can then forward them to you in Australia. Because of the amount of the high volume of goods Goopping ships to Australia, we have developed relationships with carriers to offer the lowest international shipping rates in the industry.
If for some reason Amazon will not accept your credit card when you try to purchase from them, you can even have Goopping make the purchase for you! Just create a Buy for Me order on your Goopping account. You tell us what you want to buy, and we buy it for you using our US bank account. This also eliminates the problem of having a different billing address than the shipping address, because they are both Goopping addresses!
The inability to shop from US Amazon (Amazon.com), has been eliminated. Let Goopping help you get the products you want, at the prices you deserve.
Many international online shoppers find they cannot buy what they want, from where they want, because U.S. online shops won’t accept their international credit card.
Many U.S. online shops only accept your credit card if it is associated with a U.S. billing address. Unfortunately, even if a store like Walmart, Target, or a myriad of others, exists in your own country the prices are often lower in the U.S.
Nobody wants to pay more for an item than their neighbors across the sea, or even across the border. To combat this frustration, Goopping offers a Buy for Me service.
You place a Buy for Me order and tell us what you want to buy and from where. Using our U.S. bank account, we can make the purchase for you. You then pay Goopping for the item. You can pay Goopping with Paypal, Skrill, or with your international credit card.
Whaaa? We said it. You know the plastic grass you stuff the kid’s Easter baskets with every year? If so, you are also familiar with the extreme frustration of trying to clean this stuff up, vacuum it, and keep it out of the baby’s mouth. Yikes!
This Easter Goopping has discovered a must-have for your Easter basket: Edible Easter Grass. Yummers. Get yours at Amazon. We’re happy to ship it to you in any country. Happy Easter!
Have you ever picked up a book at a book store and noticed the difference between the Canadian Price and the USA price? Wowzer. Even on things as simple as Hallmark cards the difference is blaringly stark. But we get ahead of ourselves. The point is, prices for most things are higher in Canada than they are in the US.
Don’t believe us? Here are some basic examples:
Adidas Superstar
Canada: $89.99
USA: $67
Davinci Code
Canada: $37.95
USA: $24.95
Men’s Seiko Stainless Steel Chronograph
Canada: $425
USA: $350
Samsung LCD TV
Canada: $1,899
USA: $1,319
These are just a few minor examples of items that represent a larger category of products that are generally priced lower, (even when sold at the same store), in the USA versus Canada. Basically, you can get all the same shoes, designer clothing, books, jewelry, and electronics for much less in the states.
It can be tricky shopping online and wondering if you are getting the best price for your item, especially when there are so many places you could possibly purchase the same thing.
Fortunately, there are some great online resources that enable you to search for the product you want, and they pull from hundreds of sites that sell it, to give you the lineup of best prices.
Sites like Shopzilla, Nextag, and PriceGrabber, all provide a product search engine so you can enter the item you want, and they will show you the lowest prices offered from a variety of stores.
