USPS.com has a postage calculator. You type in the weight and from-to zips and it tells you how much. I use it for everything smaller than a flat rate box.

Dh just kinda rolled his eyes and went to watch tv when I told him about PIF. My policy with him on things like that is, if he asks I'll tell him, if not no need to start a fight.

Well Sall... one thing I can offer... and if you don't take me up on this, someone else can ;-) is that I love trying new things... and I am someone worth trying when you want to share the cost of something... If I bought all the juice right now on my list of "to try" it would easily cost me $400+/- so, maybe if you are willing to do a little work, we could have a mini- co-op with 2,3,5, 6 people... the TV co-op that Vaporingqueen did was great... I got to try 20+/- TV flavors for $24. you could probably find a way to get the juice for close to free if you were willing to do the refilling and mailing... worth a thought anyway...

sallana, I bought this one on ebay and still waiting for it to come but I offered her 6.50 in best offer and she accepted
25 PCS Plastic 3 ML Clear Mini Bottles - eBay (item 370364776362 end time Jul-12-10 10:56:31 PDT)

I'm a noob here and I just joined PIF. Thanks so much for this tidbit of info! Especially with the free shipping that is a sweet deal. I think I might end up being a regular around here. I've got that obsessive type personality and since I learned about PV's about 2 weeks ago this is pretty much all I've done, lol.

Seems like PIF is a great way to keep the good times rolling!

Is it the money, the time spent being on the forum or ?????

Sounds like you love your husband a lot...you shouldn't have to sneak around or hide your enthusiasm... it might be healthier to put it all out there. Make a solution you can both live with... it might mean you end up cutting back - but cutting back will feel better than hiding etc...

I know it's just vaping, but believe me... as a "formerly" married person, your marriage will be better off in the long run if you don't feel you have to hide something you seem to love as much as ECF and your new smoke-free life style...

PM your addy to me and I'll get something sent your way via PIF or after my next supplies purchase in the next week or two.

Just tell me you didn't go to Vestal for high school ;-) lol


I must quote this, being divorced myself. Don't hide a thing from your other half!

I WILL NOT comment on the whole hubby/money thing... because otherwise I will be "opening mouth and inserting foot"... being divorced, it won't be a whole lot of value anyway :p

BUT: I'm sending you some bottles. You can get the mailers at Walmart for a decent price. and For postage: It's 88cents for a small envie, up to about 3 bucks for a larger heavy envie (and they are much lighter than we think... I always ended up overstamping till I got my scale... at walmart in the food/appliance section. The diet scale was cheaper than the postage scale..does the same thing) You can get the weight info at UPSP.com, and the package SIZE matters too. If it is not flat, takes an extra bit, if it's really thick, it takes more too.

HTH!

Hey guys, posting this here was easier than sending all six of you a PM. I got your packages out today and bought tracking for all of them. I won't ALWAYS do this, but I know some of you have been waiting a while and have been very patient.. So here are your tracking numbers. I hope you don't mind that I'm using your first names, I can't remember everyones username in relation to their real name...

I recycle envelopes. I started last year doing Swaptree.com and I didn't have any envelopes nor $$ to get any. Had to wait until I got my first swap, and used that envelope to send out. Now I have loads of them in different sizes, I never throw them out unless they are wrecked beyond use, or are Priority Mail ones cuz you can only use them for Priority Mail.

I get the same rude guy everytime I go to the post office. He always acts like I am annoying him... Imagine his reaction when I walked in today with SIX packages to send out.. AND i wanted tracking on all of them.. he acted like it was the biggest inconvenience he'd ever faced!! -_-

I have one lady at my PO like that and i make her work, the other ones I dont, theres ways of getting even. Im in the PO 2 times a day minimum and its their job no matter how you look at it. Make the one that annoys you work harder I sorta get amused doing it. All my stuff is ready to go when I go in I hand it to her and ask her to check all the weights to be sure its correct LOL

lol... dk... too funny!
I live in a small town too, so we all have kids that go to school together, or my neighbor works at my doc office, etc etc. We HAVE to be nice to each other! :lol:

I was going to mention the recycling too. I even recycle the bubble wrap and baggies *unless you get pink from me.. that I buy at the PO.

Another thing: if you DO send priority, you can go to usps.com can order the boxes for free. You can get ANY size, and any amount you want, AND they deliver it right to your door :) I still have oodles of boxes in my garage from when I used to sell on fleabay. (we used to turn them inside out for mailing first class, but they caught on to us and stamp the insides now. hehe)
 
Small town here too!!! i know how it goes! from a big huge city to lil rural BFE is some getting used to. Man wanna feel like an outcast.. move to a lil
town where everyone is either related or grown up together..geesh..
and I did the box thing too! lil stinkers we are!
