I bought something from a small business in Canada and I have no idea how to get the money to her. The price was $40 Canadian, which is essentially $40 US. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the money to her, she says just send a check, but wants it in Canadian funds? Any Canadians care to advise on what I need to do here? I am a paypal gal myself so this is a pain in the arse.

Could your bank wire funds to her bank in Canada? I'd just call the bank and ask, should be doable and they will convert US $ to Canuckian $. ;)

hmmm just saw a quote of like $30 to do a money transfer to Canada, that's a bit much... can I really just send her a check or a us money order??

well I found where I can send money via paypal internationally, she doesn't have an account but she's just going to have to figure it out because it's too much of a hassle any other way :)

Yeah, wiring money is $$$. You could also get a US Post office money order and mail that to her... just make sure you get the right one! There used to be a couple of different kinds.

Yah i'd just go the money order route and mail it. I've paid for stuff via Paypal that I ordered in the US, though. Its not that hard. I can also email money with my bank (if the other person does online banking) but not sure if that is available internationally.

Try xoom.com. This is how we send money to Germany every month- it's much cheaper than going through the bank...
