Canadian Sample Sale Sites - Invitations Enclosed

One of the biggest questions asked here about private, members only Online Sample Sales is do they ship to Canada and if so, which ones? It's true, while some private sample sale sites will allow Canadian's to sign up through invites, they will not ship to your country.

There are sample sale sites just for you though. Combing through my personally edited (and shopped!) list of sites, here are shopping destinations both situated in and shipping to Canada + each link gives you instant access through Gave That's invitations, no waiting lists or requests needed:

IN CANADA:

  • Beyond The Rack - Use code: NMM2B08655B in the invite box "This Canadian online sample site is open to International and US buyers as well as its native Canada, and features one of the largest selections of boutiques everyday. Find such names as Gucci and Juicy Couture along with luxe boutique lines. Mostly apparel for men & women, sunglasses, handbags + things for the home and even books. Almost anything found at other sample sale sites is duly featured at BTR. Make sure you print your receipt directly after ordering." [ Click here to join]

  • Gilt Groupe - "One of the first and most well established of the private, invitation only sample sale site it has changed over the years to begin shipping internationally including Canada.

Quality control has become an issue along with slow shipping and fewer sales for women. Still their returns and customer service has always been spot on and their blow out sales amazing."
