Just wanted to let everyone who ordered the altoid & lip balm tins know, that UPS just delivered the boxes to my house! They look great! I will work on these today getting them packed up and ready to be sent out. Hopefully I will have them all ready to go out tomorrow- but please bear in mind that I have 4 children and their schedules to work with as well! :oops: I'll keep you posted! Thanks!

Just wanted to let everyone know that I got some of the tins out in the mail today. I sent the following peoples packages:
clransom - parcel post 4.14
aveyed - priority mail - 3.95
gamelange - parcel post 4.14
dbaker3- parcel post 4.14
Kurstan - priority mail 3.85
valentina9 - priority mail 3.85
cathymaxwell - priority mail 4.55
sscrappystamper - priority mail - 3.95
Now...the tins are weighing more than anticipated. I checked the following boxes and this is what your packages are costing to ship according to the weight of your items :
And the rest I am still working on! The ones that are little over $4.00 I am just sending via the cheapest route even if parcel. (Of course priority if it's only a dime! lol~) I figured that your fellow stamper friends that paid $4.00 shipping and theirs actually cost $3.85 to send,wouldn't mind that they covered you the 15 cents. But- I am not knowing what to do about all of these that are higher. I don't want to have to pay myself to ship out the boxes- as it could add up, but I hope you understand my predicament. I am hoping that you will just send an envie with your difference if yours is posted higher. Does that sound fair? Just lmk your thoughts. I leave it up to you. Thanks a lot!
Scheli :?
Just wanting to update everyone again! ALL boxes are being shipped out TODAY. :shock: After scouring for smaller boxes to ship in- I decided it's too much of a pain- so everything that is going today is going via priority mail. Some of the differences in cost estimates were only .10- $1.00 or so. At this point, I just need to get the task accomplished. So... with the help of my visiting mother (from AZ) we got all the boxes packed and in the car. I will post a list of what your postage was as soon as I get home from the post office. I'll appreciate anyone who actually sends me the difference, but if you don't then...oh well. :oops: Anyhow- I'll post SOON the amounts- and you can start planning your projects as these will be arriving in a couple of days![ Thanks!

That's great Scheli--Thanks for the update. I can only speak for myself, but I'm not in a super-duper rush so don't knock yourself out getting them out tomorrow. Those kiddos come first!
Ditto what Julie said! (But Im getting so excited about these my panties are in a wad!!! LOL)
Thankyou SO much for taking this on for everyone!!! Ive been selling lots of retired stamps lately, and I know how it is to pack and ship it all(tell me again why I did this??) LOL

Hi Scheli!
No problem waiting for mine either! If mine is more expensive to ship, just post it, and I will send you the difference.
Thanks so much for doing this!!
Alicia
Hi, Scheli! If you email me with my total, or post it here, I will send you extra as well. If you can manage it, I'd like my tins sent via Priority Mail, so I'll pay whatever is needed. If you need to send them via Parcel Post, I totally understand!
My name for your list is readsomething. I'm not in any hurry, either, so whenever you have the time to get to it is fine! (Family first!!!)
Yahoo they are there! I would love to pay the difference for priority shipping...but don't break your neck getting them out! I'm not sure how much I paid to begin with so if you just post your address again I'll just slip a couple of dollars into the mail! Thanks! ~Lorie
Hey Scheli!! THANKYOU again so much!!! I cant beleive some of the shipping amounts!! I personally will be sending you $5 for my extra shipping!! I hope veryone else does too, cuz most of the amounts are WAY over the $4 we gave you, which means this whole endeavor COST you money!!
Watch your mail!!
Tandra
does this mean that I still owe you $3.95. If so, I'll get it in the mail before the weekend. My mom just had surgery and I'm traveling back to Iowa this weekend to take care of her.
Also, thank you for the job you've done. I'm sorry it turned out to be such a huge undertaking. Thank your mom for me as well!
