Sending something to Canada ***PLEASE READ***

[Nerd]

I'm shipping something to Canada, and the guy who I'm shipping it to said to put "gift" on the package. I'm not sure where to put "gift." I slapped the sticker with his address on there already. Where should I tag a big "gift?"

Please help me out as this is going out tomorrow. Your help is REALLY NEEDED. Thanks guys for always helping me out when I'm stuck.

when u go to the post office, declare it as a gift.

And they'll automatically put gift on it or something? Sorry if I sound extremely stupid, but I've never sent anything anywhere besides the United States of America. LoL.

Whenever I mail something International (never mailed to Canada though) I had to complete and sign some sort of International customs form and there is a check mark for GIFT on the form.

I would not put a sticker on the box unless it's a big sticker. I would take a black felt tip permanent marker and write GIFT in big letters maybe on 2 or all 4 sides of the box?

Don't panick yet, just ask the Post Office employees and see what they say. I'm sure they encounter this situation every single day.
