Hi Noddy65 .
I had a look at the Target site (and signed up for an account) .
But I do not see an option for shipping to the UK or in my case Ireland .
Can you post an address or some direction.
Thank You

Re: Ball canning jars
ON the front page I get "We now ship to your country with Borderfree." and the Borderfree link takes you to the Borderfree website. But you don't need to go there, pretty sure I didn't. The drop down menu about "I'm shipping to..." I think is only about what currency the site is displayed in. I left it in US Dollars. I think I just mooched around the Target site and added stuff to my basket as per any shopping site. I think when I got to the checkout with my order and put in my address it simply worked out the shipping to the UK. I did check the Borderfree site and it definitely says it ships to Ireland so you should be good to go

Re: Ball canning jars
You got lucky .
I can not get past the Zip and State in the delivery address on the ship to form .
I contacted support this is what I got ...
Rae: Thanks for waiting. I appreciate your patience.
Rae: Mick, we don't ship to Ireland. we ship in Us , Mexico and Canada.
Me: Don't know how but a friend of mine in the UK ordered and received a batch of Glass Mason jars from you recently .
Rae: I'm sorry for any confusion, Mick.
Rae: https://intl.target.com/
Rae: We only ship in US , Canada and Mexico.
Me: Thank You.
Odd thing is the shopping cart has calculated the shipping to Ireland .
So all I need is to circumvent that order form mmmm .

Re: Ball canning jars
That's really odd!! I checked through my emails from November 2017 and they all came from BorderFree and talked about my Target order. They used my paypal email address which means I didn't create an account on any site. On the BorderFree website I can get the tracking information for my order last November. If you navigate your way through the BorderFree site you eventually come to the Target store (you have to say where you're shipping to otherwise the Target store does not appear) the URL of which is https://intl.target.com which is the one you were given. Adding stuff to my cart there I can only get as far as looking at my cart and when I click "I'm ready to check out" nothing happens! The Target website all claims to ship to the UK and Ireland via BorderFree, the BorderFree website claims to ship to the UK and Ireland, they most definitely used to ship to the Uk and Ireland via BorderFree but clearly they now don't! Or someone has messed up the coding on the website. How very annoying.
I've sent feedback. Don't know if it will make any difference.

Re: Ball canning jars
Thanks for help
I have gone down that road and it might work, just that the "I'm ready to check out" button is not working .
I tried with Firefox, Edge and Chrome even tried a VPN and I figure its not disabled its broken .
Will have a look again in a few days .

Having failed with Target, I contacted this crew http://www.thecarycompany.com/catalogse ... ason%20jar .
I emailed them and received the following reply .
Good afternoon Mick,
Thank you for your interest in placing an order. In regards to your questions, we can ship to Ireland; however, if your order exceeds 100 LBS we would need to you provide a carrier as we do not currently have the means to ship freight over seas. We do not tax outside Illinois so you would not receive any tax charge. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Thank you,

Looking Good, I will wait a week and see if the link on Target gets fixed as they are still much cheaper .
