Official *What did you get in the mail today?* Thread!!!
I got my 52 teas order with the bestsellers sampler pack and some cotton candy black and I got a swap package from JustJames with a few samples for me to test out. I am very excited!
I was actually HOME today, so I got my The TeaCupany order. Tons of new teas to try. :))
My samples of Taiwanese oolongs from Teavivre arrived today, complete with a complimentary gaiwan! It was very generous of them to give me free tea – and something else to brew it in. I’m pretty excited to give them a go.
Now have my Tealux delivery and something extra special to arrive later on today.

Yeah! I got my Butiki order today!!!
So excited :-D
No kidding!
The package actually came in a couple of days ago, but the tornados
happened & all I could do was sniff the box..lol…I have been so busy I have
barely had time to eat and just before I opened the box I was so tempted
to eat it whole (the box)… You could smell all of those delicious teas wafting through.
I have not had a blooming tea YET, so I am looking forward to that experience.
I want to wait until I have enough time to sit down and thoroughly enjoy it.
I am so happy I have found this Steepster site…coolest people in the world are here!
Thanks amigos :-)
I got the most amazing swap package from Whiskey Buzz! It was filled with fun notes, delicious tea, and a couple of awesome surprises. Thank you so much!!
Hmmmmmm I got two parcel pick up cards in the mail today – much more fun when you get the actual packages………
EDIT – went to the post office to mail a swap package, and they let me have one of the two packages She looked for the other but couldn’t find it. At least she tried.
So I received an AMAZING, GENEROUS, OMG I OWE YOU TEA swap package from MissB. Thank you so much. Love the smell of opening tea packages….
i get irrationally grumpy when they don’t leave a package! i have all these little notes on my front and back door like a crazy person saying “please leave packages!!” ha.
I moved here in May, the mailman left packages outside my door for months. I loved it, walking down the hall and you see a package/s outside your door, it was exciting. Didn’t have to wait until the next day. I have good neighbors, no one is going to steal my packages. And then about a month ago, it all stopped. All I get now are notice cards. Not sure what happened – someone complained, new mailman, dunno – but I wish they would just leave them.
god yes… mailman changed at our place too and now they don’t even attempt delivery, we just get a card in the slot, the day AFTER we should have had an attempted delivery. Hell one day i was home waiting for something specifically because i knew it was to be delivered that day and we watched the guy come in and leave all without ringing up or knocking….nothing.
yeah, that sort of thing drives me crazy. i LOVE our mail carrier—she is awesome and always goes the extra mile, leaving packages in our inner foyer even though it’s in the back while the mailboxes are in the front—and every holiday season i make sure to thank her with a gift because whenever she’s on vacation and someone else delivers our mail they’re like that, not even trying to leave stuff (i work from home so i’m always around) and being really sloppy with the “notice left” stuff.
i hope you somehow magically get to go back to how things were, Dexter3657!
I’ve been at home too, and still gotten a card. What happened to attempted delivery. If you didn’t knock on my door, you didn’t attempt to deliver…. Drives me crazy.
ifjuly – glad you have a good one. Keep giving the holiday gifts, maybe she will love her route so much she won’t leave. Good ones are hard to find.
Woo! Mail!
I received a big swap from VariaTea today with a few extra samples and I also received the L’Hiver (Fauchon) and Rouge D’Automne (Mariage Freres) that I bought from Queen of Tarts.
I feel pretty spoiled and I’m really excited. These are all teas that I’m really looking forward too!
