FYI, after I ordered 6 oz from Heavenly Lamb, they emailed me and said they couldn't provide small amounts of nibs at minimum shipping cost to anyone who hadn't previously purchased a pillow from them (small business, can't afford loss, etc.; that's logical) and if I still wanted to purchase, they would ship for $4.95 shipping/handling cost. I went ahead and authorized it because it's SO EASY and still cheap even with the added shipping. Again, thanks for the good tip, Melinda09.

Hi Kaye.

Well, darn it all to heck!

I guess they caught on to us. LOL. I wonder how many vapers got their orders through before they decided that they were going to have to add a minimum shipping/handling charge to these small orders? Can you see a cartoon bubble with the entire Heavenly Lamb staff sitting around a table, and discussing where all of these little 2-4 oz. wool nibs orders might be coming from all of a sudden? LOL. I'm sorry that it happened with your order, and sincerely hope that you're seeing a little humor in it too.

You're right that it's still a pretty good deal in the grand scheme of things - with the $$$ that we put into all of this equipment. What do you think? Should we clue them in about their new ECF market, so they can put together a bunch of small packages ... something to make it easy/cheaper for them to get them out of their warehouse?

Actually, after I completed my order and got the (small) total price, I had thought of adding a note to my order that they could ship them in a padded envelope ... didn't need to waste a box and packing materials, since I didn't care if they got squished a bit. My order came in a big box that definitely put them in the hole, profit-wise. Then again, I didn't know at that time how big of a quantity/volume 8 ounces would be; but, I think that 2-ounces would be do-able in a padded envelope.

What do you think? Should I just leave my big nose out of it? I'm only thinking that they could decide to cut out that line item altogether, and it might be better to give them a heads-up than to lose this good supplier. From what I've read here, and PMs that I've gotten, this is very clean wool. Like I said: there are zero sticks and what-not in my bag, and it appears very clean (not dirty or dusty) to me.

Sheryl, thank-you for the samples of wool. I will try when my juice arrives today. I'm sorry for the late post but it has taken me forever to find this thread again, and for some reason I deleted you e-mail with all the spam I get. Also, thank-you for your answers to my questions, it's nice to have someone to ask. I tried getting the PG here but no one has it, we don't have a tractor supply store per se, but ones that supply and sell tractors. Where would the place be to order this the cheapest way possible for the most amt.? I know I would never need a gal. Thanks again, you are super. Sheryl

Just got my wool nibs and they are magic. Everything tastes so much better. Was about to try those cut up tea bags when order arrived. So easy too...just stuff it in and see how your smoke really should taste.
Thank you so much for taking time to sharie this info.
You all MUST try this.

Works great in my 901.
Went back to my sterile cotton for the 102 because it worked better.

I've googled Heavenly Lamb and can' find it. How do you order the wool nibs?

My friend has tried poly, wool and cushion stuffing from his couch :x

He only uses cigarette filters now. They can be purchased in 200 filter packs for 2.50USD. He also said they were clean after having a talk with the manufacturer of the brand he uses.

Natural wool had been on my list of things to try before I came up with using tea bags...but this is sounding good....perhaps I should still give it a try.
