This is an UPDATED post for my friends and followers and everyone outside of Israel, who love Israel and want to support the people here, i.e. "Buy Blue & White".
If you're here in Israel looking at an item on Amazon that DOESN'T ship to Israel - I've got great news for you! You can order items to a Shipito address and have them ship it to you! And just in time for your upcoming Prime Day purchases, you can get 10% off your international shipping when you shop on Amazon and send your purchases using Shipito. Just enter the code PRIMEDAY24 at checkout. This limited-time offer runs until July 31, 2024.
It's become SUPER easy to support some Israeli businesses from outside of Israel! So I'd like to help everyone stand in solidarity with Israel with this "Buy Blue & White" guide.
So many companies make it easy to buy their products from the USA - especially those with Amazon storefronts (and many ship to other countries too)!
I'm happy to share some options with you - all of the items listed below are a great way to support an Israeli-owned business and still have the convenience of shopping online! I'm sure there are lots more options, but in the meantime - here are the ones that I know of:
(I hope to keep adding to this list)
Buy Israeli wines (free shipping on 12 or more bottles and $15 off your $200 order with code KW15)
Many Israeli products - art, jewelry, etc - are available at judaica.com (use the link to begin your purchase AND use code SHOP10 for an extra discount)
You can make your own seltzer (carbonated water) using the iconic Sodastream machine.
Or buy beautiful Judaica items, like an Emanuel mezuzah case or chanukiyah, or even a great Havdallah travel set! Also from Emmanuel: Chanukah Kippot, Jerusalem Kippot, painted wooden kiddush cup and coaster, "Yeled Tov/Yaldah Tovah" hammered stainless steel kiddush cups, hammered nickel kiddush cups, and colorful candlesticks.
Buy beautiful jewelry from Paz Creations. Also NanoStyle and Happy Lolli.
Refael Jewelry Designer sells handmade jewelry from Israel.
Also check out embroidered jewelry boxes.
Nurture your plants with a LeGrow planter set.
Display your love of Israel with these Jerusalem-themed ArtTrivets.
Display beautiful Israel on your wall with an Israel Photo Art Calendar!
Decorate your home with beautiful wooden Wall Art from Tohar Design Store, or a fun Chanukah table runner, or a painted washing cup.
If you love music, check out Day of Rest for something different.
Buy Israeli spices from Izrael Zaatar Ltd and bring the flavor of the shuk into your kitchen (BBQ Grill mix, Galilee Stir Fry Seasoning mix).
Try out Israeli herbal/fruit teas: Golan blend or Louisina make great choices.
Get your kids moving and exploring with Israeli-owned Nona Kid pretend play, outdoor play, and fitness equipment for kids.
Check out the whole line of Qurious educational toys and games.
You can even support an Israeli business when you buy non-Israeli products from an Israeli reseller. They buy items wholesale and list them for competitive prices on Amazon. For example, handbags from BSD Merchant.
And, on another note, you can always support Israeli businesses directly: For an interactive Israel-themed online escape room experience, be sure to check out the games at bagelsandlocks.com!
