Lululemon Stretching to Meet Demand

Interesting article in a Canadian newspaper about Lululemon not being able to meet demand.

"At its fast-growing e-commerce site, the chain recently made a deliberate effort to lower its inventory levels to prepare for a major systems overhaul next month, during which it will shut it down for a few hours on the evening of April 14. In the long run, the changes will help the company bolster its online business even faster, company officials predicted."

This might be a stupid question, but is it possible to order from the CA website even if you are in the US?

Oh... well that paragraph actually sounds promising and makes dealing with the very noticeably low inventory worth putting up with for a little while.

Makes a girl like me, that doesn't live conveniently close to a store, hopeful that I'll have access to a better, more comparable selection of inventory like those of you that are near stores!

Yes Sharon, it is, but you have to ship to a Canadian address. I did this last week, ordered from the us side and I'm in Canada. shipped it to a us address and went and picked it up.
