Is there an easy way to ship home wine and olive oil? Is it prohibitively expensive?

Check with WA state customs - last time I checked you could not ship wine to our state from Europe. Not sure about olive oil.

Just got back from Italy last week. We shipped wine from Tuscany (a case). It was not cheap...about $200. We sent it from a Mail Boxes Etc in Orvieto. We probably could have found something a little cheaper, but we were so sick of carrying it that at that point we didn't care:) It just arrived yesterday and I still think the high cost was worth it. If I had it to do over I would probably mail as we buy at each winery rather than having to carry it and ship all at once.
