what’s the current weight of the box?

I forgot you were tracking that. I should still have the receipt at home, so I’ll check tonight.

Maybe it’s stamped on the box. Marzipan?

Cheri select said

It probably isn’t. The box itself is also a little lighter than the weight would indicate because I had to send Marzipan a few things and I slipped them into the box.

2 lbs 9.4 oz

Thats ok. Thanks

I’m sending this out today. The weight is 2 lbs 7.7 oz. I have Randomlyfascinated’s address, just waiting for her name for the address label. I have to say, there are some strong smelling teas in there that have infiltrated much of the box. I can’t put my finger on which teas it might be (it’s not smoky, more strongly herbal) so I couldn’t remove them. But several of the teas I pulled out to sample all smelled the same, so I didn’t try them. Please remember to use good packaging on these boxes – not just regular thickness plastic.

Sampled/finished:

Hello Sweetie – Butiki
Peach pineapple pizzazz – Cozyteacart
Golden Yunnan – In Pursuit of Tea
Pumpkin Spice Brûlée – Teavana
Caramel Oolong – Teasy Teas
Hung Zhi Xiang Phoenix Mountain oolong – Whispering Pines

Added:
Royal Assam – Golden Tips
Harmutty Assam – golden Tips
Sapphire Earl Grey – Novus
Acai Berry Pomegranate and Vanilla – Dilmah
Picnic in the Park oolong – 52teas
Sweet Dreams – Davidstea
Green Rooibos Key West – Adagio
Red Velvet Cake Mate – 52teas
Buttermilk Lemon – Tea Gschwendner

You actually tried hello sweetie;)?

My daughter did ;)

Got the box today. Wow, so much in here! I am going to have to find a time to really look through it. It is awesome timing though because my husband left for a 2 week business trip and I needed a little encouragement today.

Have fun with it!

How’s it coming, did you get Carol who’s address yet?

Carol is on vacation this week.

This week as in July 27 – August 2 ?

She posted on pass the stash that she would be out the last week of July and last week of August.

Ok, she hadn’t told me. We’ll have to get back to her later. RandomlyFascinated please get Ost’s address when you can.

Oh, I thought that carol had messaged you. She messaged me asking if I could hold on to it. She said that she would be back the 31st. I assumed that she had already checked with you. I am done with the box, so I could send it on to the next person or hold on to it for a few extra days and send it out to carol. I did have some things I was going to send just for carol, but I can send them separate to her if I need to. Just let me know what you want me to do.

Ok, well if she’s going to be back on the 31st, it should be fine to have it in the mail tomorrow, the 28th, correct? If that’s the case then we’ll keep the order as is.

Well since she is only 1 state away from me I was thinking to send it out Wednesday so it doesn’t get delivered too early. I know the mailman left it on my front step and I wouldn’t want it to sit out in the hot sun or rain. Is that ok?

Sure.

Ok I will send it out on Wednesday. I will post my list soon :)
