The website calculates the shipping cost but it is not always accurate. Please note that any shipping overages over $1 are always refunded. However, to help prevent this I have brought back flat rate shipping options for most provinces. Alberta estimates are generally correct but other provinces, especially British Columbia will now pop up as a flat rate option in check out. PLEASE CHOOSE YOUR OWN PROVINCE option if available OR the calculated rate, whatever is less. Hopefully this alleviates any excessive charges. I know how frustrating it can be to pay so much for shipping when it could be used on more fabric instead!
