KaraOrNot, I am so sorry! I paid for it at the post office and watched them put the label on. That is so crazy!

This is ridiculous. Incidentally box B was also held up due to USPS ridiculousness. DH was going to send it using a medium flat rate box. But they only had large, which was $5 more. THEN they didn't have the free tape, but said he could purchase tape for 6 fucking dollars. So he said F that noise. It ended up  being sent via UPS.

I always use UPS. So much easier to deal with. Plus I already have the supplies at work.

And the USPS doesn't seem to understand why they're having problems. Hmm. lol.

Although I will say, doing it at usps.com like I did last time was a breeze. You're not dependent on whatever supplies are in stock, you have record of your payment, and you don't have to wait in line. AND they gave me a small discount for doing it online.  All you need is a printer and a kitchen scale.

No worries!  I know you paid and I am assuming that  the postage tag just fell off.


 dexteroni  - I mailed it today and I made the post office guy double check that the postage paid sticker was properly attached. lol. He said it should get to you by Monday!

[dexteroni]

Got the box today! I'll go through it and take pics tonight or tomorrow. CJ, I'm ready for the next address.

[dexteroni]

OK, here we go! Once again, this was super fun.

First, here are the items I received, minus the ones I took out.



The items I took. There's also a Sephora foundation card that I accidentally excluded from this photo.



The items I put in (two photos). I completely emptied my coffers this time around. I considered saving a few things for the next round but decided not to. I'm sure I'll have another stash by fall. lol.

Ooh! There's some good stuff in there!

Yes, I did, but was out of town all weekend.  I should be able to get it out Tuesday or Wednesday!

EKK! Excited!

The lady at the shipping place had me fill out a little slip which she said would not be on the package. So, I filled it out really quickly (and messily). She stuck it on the package as I was walking away. Not only will you see some serial killer-esque handwriting, but you will also have my phone number. So, you know... Feel free to give me a call. Haha.

It will leave Monday, should be to you on Wednesday.

Lol! Trust me I of all people don't judge handwriting. And no offense but I'm not much of a phone talker

I got the box from mfluder today. Holy hell! Sooo much stuff! Unloading now I'll post pics in a few minutes. Here's a teaser: mfluder's contributions (she's crazy busy at work & didn't have a chance to photograph).

And you're awesome for picking up my slack, thank you!!!

[Kore]

This was overwhelming! Here's what I put in. I seem to have burned through most of my samples. Some unopened Julep polishes, a red mini Julep lipstick, UD All Nighter, Tarte Maracuja Oil, and hair pins. If you need a gift for an 11 y/o girl, you're set!

[Kore]

Here is everything all laid out
