Got my Teavana order today-10 tins. They actually shipped really fast. I was nervous about buying from them at a busy time since people complain about how they miss things. But once again they did great for me. xD
They seriously have the best tins-glad I got to stock up! ^^

Also got my WP order yesterday!
And some books in the mail…that aren’t tea related. But hey, one of them was Jurassic Park. That deserves to be mentioned, right? :P

I LOVE the movie but haven’t gotten around to reading the book yet. I hope it turns out to be a good one for you!

yyz said

I liked the book way more than the movie:-)

Shae said

That’s all I needed to hear – just added this one to my Amazon list!

Ost said

I read half of the book like 8 years ago, and all the Science stuff went over my head, but I LOVED the writing. I’ve wanted to get it a for a while because I remember loving the Dino bits. I can’t wait to read it again! I’m sure I’ll like it more this next time. And I’m sure that you, Shae will love it also!

I received my order today from Berylleb (ebay seller). I ordered three teas and George. They included three packages of tea in a really nice red pouch as a bonus. :))

My swap package from VariaTEA came in yesterday. It smelled soooo sweet when I opened it – all dessert-y, flavoured teas.

I received my first tea order in the mail today!!! :) I ordered several teas from Teavana and everything came fine. However I swear I read their tea comes with a label to stick on your canister?! I gave up after 17 minutes on hold with their customer service!

Ost said

The stickers on the tea bags should peal off. Kinda hard to pull off some of them. But they usually pull off fine. Hope that helps!

Shae said

I got an order in the mail from Teavana this week and noticed that the bags they sent by mail are different than the ones they give in the store. We usually shop in the store and pull the labels off the bags for our tins, but I couldn’t remove the labels from the mail order ones either. Could that be it?

Brighid said

They r hard to pull off… I pulled just enough to cut the name off the label so I could put it on my canister. Not real user friendly like the ones in-store

AllanK said

I you buy a Teavana tea in store you can have them stick the peelable label on one of their catalogs, then when you get home transfer it to a tin. If they stick the label on the tea package itself it does not come off right and is useless afterward. I think the ones from the website are stuck on something to make them unpeelable afterward.

Hillel said

When I transfer orders from any vendor into tins, I just cut the shipping bag labels right off the bags and tape them to the tins. I like the varied display that makes on my shelf. Often, I’ll add a few words about steeping time and temp so I don’t have to look it up.
