I just made a 52teas order last night: Cotton Candy Black and Lime Jello Salad.
And my DT order just came in the mail today! I’ll be leaving town for a few days though so I guess I’ll enjoy them when I get back. I ordered 50g each of Coco Chai Rooibos, Pumpkin Chai, Read My Lips, Chocolate Rocket, Buttered Rum, and Organic Super Chocolate.
Sounds like you will have plenty to return home to :) I would go crazy having to wait to try them!
Great DT choices! Read my Lips & Chocolate Rocket will blow your mind they’re so good!
The wait was definitely worth it, plus I’m drinking Read My Lips right now and definitely like it a lot more now than when I tried it at the store a couple years ago. :)
Just made a big Butiki order this morning:
Grape Oolong (0.5 oz.) – 5.25
Strawberry Oolong (0.5 oz.) – 5.25
Summer Vacation – 15.00
Cantaloupe & Cream (3 × 0.5 oz.) – 13.50
Explore Kenya – 24.00
And a DavidsTea online order just now:
Dulce & Banana (50g) – 6.50
Blazing Strawberries (50g) – 6.75
Luscious Watermelon Iced Tea Pack (70g) – 8.50
Tropicalia Iced Tea Pack (3 × 70g) – 25.50
Still allowing myself retail/money-spending therapy… yesterday was less than awesome, so goodbye $130. :)
Nice selections from Butiki! No Idea about David’s but some of them sound yummy!
Oh gosh. I need to stop. I ordered a bunch of teas from iheartteas and now another Verdant order. I need to destroy my credit card :/
LOL you can always mail your credit card to me :P hahahahaa
Good news Krystaleyn, I just shipped out your order this morning. Warning, be careful opening the package, it may burst. :)
Ohhhhh I’m so excited! I swear though, NO MORE ORDERING TEA! At least I kept the latter two orders both under $30, but that’s an awful lot of money to put down in a short time span! I need to invest in some self-control, hahahaha.
I saw the email, Rachel – can’t wait! I forgot that today wasn’t a holiday for you guys in the States (it is Victoria Day here).
Happy Victoria Day! I suppose I shouldn’t tell you that I put all my 52Teas pouches on sale today? :p haha :)
I saw… pretty sure you did that just to torment me :P
I’m not really sure how this happened, but I just ordered more tea! I told myself no more, but somehow I think samples don’t count… so I placed orders for samples. Of course I still have to pay for them, but as long as they aren’t over 1 oz I don’t “count” them as full purchases. I think I need to change my system ^^;

And from where did one procure said free samples? :)
Teavivre, fusion tea room, and that ~.50 one from Persimmon. Gonna be drinking a lot of tea in the coming weeks, but hopefully it’ll hold me off from placing any more orders!
Remember my orders ? :) Brought a LOT of tea home today :)

I just couldn’t resist ordering this after I tried the medium grade sencha from hibiki-an:

Uggg I am LITERALLY sitting here trying to decide if I should get some Golden Fleece or not. It would be my bday gift to myself. Its SOOO expensive though!
I decided that this is too rare an opportunity to pass :) After all – we only have one spring during the year … :)
Especially so, since I simply adore yunnan blacks… :)
I pulled the trigger – I only have one bday a year too :) And Im not getting younger lol
Welcome to the club of poorer, but happier people! :)
I am appalled at myself… I just made a big Teaopia online order:

Jiaogulan (50g) – $8.40 (reg. 12.00)

1 O-OTS-1 Oolong Sample Collection $24.75
1 G-GMC-02 Steamed Green Tea (Gen Mai Cha)(1/4 lb. – $8.80)
The Taste of Tea sampler has Dragonwell, Golden Monkey, and White Peony in it, and the other two are pretty self explanatory. I am new to loose leaf and pretty much in heaven over these!
My last order was the Easy Gaiwan from yunnansourcing.us. I’ll post my last Upton order when I can get back on my computer soon :-)
Wow, all these orders look so delicious. I need to get into more companies I think.
I made a Teaopia order:
WHITE PEAR 50g
GOJI GREEN 50g
MOJITO RASPBERRY MINT 50g
AZTECS GOLD 50g
STRAWBERRY CREAM 50g
SIMPLY MANGO 50g
POMEGRANATE GREEN 50g
SMORES IN TIN 120G
total $55.65.
I really did not need more tea, but I thought I better make an order in case that smores tea isn’t available anymore after Teavana takes over.
I am also being sent my last sample package of Teavivre samples.
I CAN"T WAIT for my new tea to arrive!!
Darn it, I meant to order the s’mores tea but forgot when I placed my order :( I hope you got (at least) 30% off still??
Yep, I placed the order on Friday, so I got the 30% off! I can’t wait to try it!
Nice :) I’m tempted to go pick it up at the store semi-near me if they have it… it sounded so good and I’m pretty mad at myself for forgetting to put it back in my cart when I frantically made an order the next day (after they changed the offer to 30% in-store but the code still worked). Sigh.
