I want to send my mother a birthday gift. She lives in Alaska. What online shops ship there cheaply?
Some ideas of gifts: food or wine, candy, personal care products.
Here are some sites that deliver to Alaska that might work for you.

I agree with the other post about Overstock (http://www.overstock.com/) being a great site to shop at. I shop there a lot. However, if you read their shipping policy, they do charge extra on top of their standard $2.95 shipping for delivery to Alaska. It depends on weight and size.
It appears that most sites have to charge more for delivery to Alaska and I really haven’t found any exceptions. One thing you could try to do to help out with the cost is look for coupons for the store you are shopping at. If you can save 10%, 20%, etc on the product, the savings can go toward the extra shipping cost. Hope that makes sense. You can find coupons by doing a search in Yahoo or Google for the store name and then the word coupon.
