Considering a new Traveling Tea Box- [SIGN UPS CLOSED- UPDATED 8/16]

I would send out a box (prefer to send by september) filled with different varieties of tea; I would include mostly flavoreds, like DavidsTea, DellaTerra, and the like (my cupboard is not up to date, but I’ll soon post what I’d include). I also have some great Darjeeling I’ll never finish so I’d want to include that.

Just a few things to consider (inspired by Chuckieroy’s thread, so thanks for that):

-US only, unless we get volunteers who specifically are willing to ship internationally

-Don’t sign up unless you really want to do it; you will have to give up some tea as well as pay postage, but all of that, I think, seems minimal compared to the activity.

-Try and be fair with what you take out/put in. This is speaking to both quality/price and weight of the tea.

-Don’t keep the box too long.

I’ll include a log we can write in of what we took out, put in, tasting notes, etc.

UPDATED INFO:

I tried to make it so no one is shipping too far from themselves, though with some of our farther-living friends this was a necessity. Anyway, shipping shouldn’t cost much more than $7 for any of us, if USPS is correct, and that’s on the high end. Once mine is shipped out, I’ll let y’all know how much it was.

OK, Here’s the order I’m looking at. Please message your address to the person before you:

1. Debbie (Maryland) (Received and sent)
2. Linnaete (North Carolina) (Received and sent)
3. Dignitea (North Carolina) (Received and sent)
4. Exidy (Virginia) (Received and sent)
5. Ellyn (Massachusetts) (Received and sent)
6. Teatee (Massachusetts) (Received)
7. Dr. Jim (Massachusetts)
8. Iridium (massachusetts)
9. Bluelotus (New York)
10. Teamore (New York)
11. Short Sorceress (Wisconsin)
12. Skysamurai (Minnesota)
13. Brewteally Sweet (California)
14. Moraiwe (Wisconsin)
15. Back to me, Artp (New Jersey)

I have an absolutely insane work week, but it will be sent out within a week or so- that gives me time to fill out the box, get a journal for it, etc. I’m also going to be in a Harney and Sons store tomorrow, so I’m gonna try to pick up some bigger assortments. If you want something specific from H&S, I might be able to get it if you message me.

Thanks Y’all. Let me know if there’s any concerns.
