I'm with you, Most places don't think Alaska is part of the U.S. I shop at places that will ship US post office for the most part and I THANK them very much. The other places with UPS don't even want to talk about options. I once got a $12 T-shirt and a free catalog for $36.88 (it did show up in 2 days though) Never again form those guys!
