My auntie is teaching me how to use the sewing machine I bought from a FP deal last month woot Apparently, it was an awesome deal and now she wants this machine as her third Teehee It totally would have sat unopened for months, maybe years....intimidating me with his features otherwise. Go SD!
That's awesome! For all the sewing and little alterations that I do, it's a wonder I don't have a sewing machine. I do everything tediously by hand. I didn't know there was a front page sewing machine HD.. although, DH is probably glad I didn't know.. he's having me clean out a BUNCH of my things and try to donate or sell them.. so I spent the morning making listings.. I don't know how he'll react when my 3 purses that I ordered come in Facepalm I know, I need purses like I need totes... I bought harvey seatbelt bags.. in colors navy, raspberry, and checkerboard.. all in size Medium.. paid $133 shipped for everything, but it's still ALOT. I've wanted these bags forever and a day..

laugh out loud I spent $26 there, mostly neat kids toys, at least they take paypal, I used some of my balance... although BOA AIU is at 7% CB limited time right now.. so probably should have done that Stick Out Tongue

i have my grandmother's antique sewing machine. it's got it's own little table and one of those pretty metal things at the bottom. i love it. i need to bring it up here. it's being kept for me in alabama.
DH's parents have one of those machines that folds and it becomes a table... it's sitting abandoned in the corner of a room with a bunch of junk piled all over and around it.. MIL said that it doesn't work, I don't have the balls to tinker with it.. don't want to get involved with fixing their things..

If I place a Sephora order now, will I get it this week? I've never really paid attention to how long it takes to get packages from them.


Quote from PordaPoddy :
You didn't ask me but since bras are so light, at ~$5 for the FR envelope, there's a cheaper way to do it with USPS First Class. I re-use my white VS resealable return bags :cover laf: My only real expense here is packing tape and paper for a label. I haven't had a complaint on bag-reuse yet... I mean you're selling used here, so the expectation should be that they picked up an awesome find at a GoodWill or something :l ol:
Quote from smilinghelen :
I :he art: those flat rate padded envelopes. They take so long to arrive in the mail when I order more of them from the USPS website. I use them to send things that are very heavy.. Save a bunch of money and it arrives fast.



First class mail is the best way to ship bras. I don't spend ANY money on packaging supplies except for Scotch heavy duty tape I get at Costco when they're on sale. I get free air padding from all my amazon orders and I save all those lightweight hard to open white plastic VS baggies. I feel like they also give my used bras more authenticity since I'm shipping them in a VS bag. I make sure the VS address is prominent when I stick my mailing label. Also, a USPS postal scale (less than $15) is worth it if you're shipping alot. You can save $1+ on each order by shipping USPS First Class with your postal scale and weighing them. Ebay gives a discount on shipping, plus tracking is included in the price.

Also, you know that plastic insert when you buy one piece swimsuits at the store (Costco in particular)... You can SAVE THAT! I use one of those to take pictures of used bras. Pics come out awesome. I've noticed higher auction end prices since I started taking good pictures of my items..
Thanks ladies. Do you somehow clean the envelopes before reusing them or use them like you receive them? My VS envelopes always look like they've been run over a few times by the time they get to me.

SH, that's a great idea for taking pics. I need to try to find one, if I decide to list my bras. Unfortunately, I don't shop at Costco.

Quote from PordaPoddy :
Found a flyer in store for a new GWP coming up...

The Poolside Tote, Free w/ $75 Purchase. 7/4 - 7/7. Comparable value $39.
I'll upload a pic in a few, but it looks like a white canvas tote with blue (as in SlickDeals Blue :l ol: ) stripes. Gold Grommets holding a rope handle. Large postal-looking VS stamp on it in pink/red reading VS IN PARADISE with love and VICTORIA's SECRET.
Thanks

Quote from smilinghelen :
: roll: I wonder that too.. and then I see that I'm shipping to a guy and I think, "Is it the wife buying from the husbands account, or am I selling my used bras to a dude!"
Our eBay acct is in DH's name. I have bought formal clothes, hair accessories & makeup. I've also bought t-shirts for him. Some people probably think he's a cross dresser. laugh out loud

:s leepy2: I'm exhausted... marathon cleaning session before my aunt gets here tomorrow morning. The kind of aunt that scrutinizes your cleaning :mes sed: Hope you are all having a good weekend : )

FYI - Express Booklet codes expire at the end of today $75/200, $10/30, $30/90, $40/120


Update on the camping trip with newlywedszilla: After we got back last month, trip expenses were tallied and divided it up amongst everyone. We never heard anything from them, but finally got a check in the mail on Friday. Now get this...not only is it 2 weeks late, it's also $50 short :fac epalm:. No note explaining it or anything. When asked, they said decided that they didn't eat as much food as we did, so they cut out the shopping trip where we bought the propane and dry goods we all used. :cens ored: So... we were just supposed to eat $50? We had already paid the other guy so now we have to get some money back from him???? We fronted almost $600 for the trip, not including our flights. F#@%Q$%holes.

They also said they didn't feel like they were being heard during planning and therefore hesitated to speak up during the trip. WTF? They wouldn't shut up and roll with anything, the whole trip was a constant fight with their nagging. If that's hesitating to speak up, then I'd hate to see no hesitation. :sh ake: I'm pretty sure they're confusing "not being heard" with not getting their way.
Can I give them a 0-star rating on Yelp Travel Companions ? :loo k:
Those people sound unbelievable. I'm glad you got out of it, without losing more money or something worse. Lesson learned I'm sure.

BTW, I have guests coming in a few days. Would you come & clean my house too? Please Enjoy your aunt. Smilie

Thanks for posting the pic. I want one now.

Quote from crazymonkey1980 :
I ship mine using the padded flat rate envelopes, I love to ship almost anything in them. On eBay you can get a discounted shipping rate, and you can have the mail carrier come right to your house if you ship priority. But the envelopes are taking forever to get to me. I need to ship out a clothing auction someone won on fri., hoping the envelopes would get here Sat. No luck in that wishful thinking. :/ the items would fit in the envelope and save me $5 in shipping. Oh wells, spending more to ship out in the am.
Priority Mail is definitely convenient. Do you have a mail box to put regular packages in? If not, it would be a pain to ship using any other method. I'd always use PM too.
