    Re: Shipping to Sweetgrass dilemma

    It's well worth it if you have a large enough order or if you have multiple people ordering stuff. I went down on Friday to get some stuff and everything went incredibly smooth.

    Side note: You can bring back 5 24 packs of beer per person, even if you are only in the US for 1 hour. We had to drive to Sunburst to get Coors original because they didn't have it at Duty Free (3 miles down the road). The gas was also a lot cheaper in Sunburst than Sweetgrass.

        5 24 packs? Yeah right. Your allowed to bring 24 cans back per person without paying duty. Unless of course you don't tell them.

              You can bring back 5 24's each. You have to pay duty on them of course but it still works out to be cheaper than back home. I think it was around $8/duty per 24 pack.

                Tyler is correct. I bring beer back from 30min visits to Blaine.

                  That's not bad, and Coors original is worth every penny. Such a nice treat when going down to the States, i'm glad you can't get it here.
