MIINA Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Are we supposed to make the packages all pretty? Isn't it going to get ruined through the post? I always use a reuse box which I have. For Wendi's, I put some stickers on the box(because I missed peel the label off from the box:mf_rosetinted: I tried to hide the mark but... sorry Wendi, It's not pretty. ) and wrapped it by pale pink paper.

Petra Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 i bought two special edition boxes from our post! they are colourful and in size M which means there is also a big "M" on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendi Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 THIS IS HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!! *feels even worse* Mine is just under 2 KG - because it would cost three times as much to post - and I do not have all that money. I made it just under the 2kg - so go by weight - and not by size. I am sure your MM partner will be happy with your gifts!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakie Doke Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I went to the Post Office - it was going to cost £50 to post!! I had to take a couple of things out Yes - its my round 3 But there is still plenty in there - so just had to re-wrap it all again - and hopefully it is just under the 2KG limit!! And Oakie - thats an old expression here Lol, and did you put enough tpe to choke a horse on it again? *steals old expression* *needs to get a move on with her round 3 then* Posted it yesterday - raced in 5 minutes before the Post Officeclosed - and it was under 2kg!! Hazel helped eat what we had to take out!! Wanted to post yesterday - but as we had no forum I couldn't!!! Ohh, sounds like a tough job. Yay! I only had a plain brown box - so I put stickers etc on it - butits wrapped in plain brown paper for the post as they need to be able to read the address properly etc!! Aww, and hide the wonderfull-ness from the posties? Mine sent through still! Although, I wonder what that "ID recorded" sticker means? Probably that they'll never let me send any stupid parcels again :-) I have my parcel for Bellatrix ready! I wrapped and decorated everything yesterday night because I was totally tired of studying . But.. when I packed Ana's parcel (my #1 MM), I put much more in the parcel and it was just about 1,8kg (I'm still wondering ) and now the parcel isnt even full and it's already at the limit. And then I have to think of the photos I saw in the thread - how much do you actually put in your parcels? I'd lov to put more in Bellatrix's parcel (I obviously bought enough candy for three parcels ) but if it's over 2kg, it already costs 3 times as much!! And I cannot afford that at the moment. *feels bad* *accepts left overs* agreeeeeee! this is the box from my partner XDDDDhttp://img221.imageshack.us/img221/8597/21533100cb2.jpg i like the idea of recycling LOL! me too, if u let me choose, i wont take candy and chocolateso why i would join this project???haha.... For the chips? THIS IS HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!! *feels even worse* It's alright, it was filled with chips! i bought two special edition boxes from our post! they are colourful and in size M which means there is also a big "M" on them Who are they for? How big is M? *cries* YAYYY =DI received my package from Oakie Doke 3 days ago ;p It didn't even take two weeks to reach France ! I LOVE Australian post-office What can I say...

lilmot Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Oh dear God, I came home from Florida yesterday and picked up my parcel at the postoffice today, it is AMAZING. me and my mom are shocked. Hi lunafish, I haven't been here for the last week. Was it the parcel from me? And *shocked* as in good? There really wasn't too many "treats" in the one I sent, but some other good stuff (I think). Hope you got my parcel and hope you like it! And I hope your trip to Florida was great. I just got back from Arizona where it was 85-90 degrees, and here in Washington it is snowing and 33 degrees.

Well, actually, I had a *tape fetish*....hee hee....it was Pink who was the tape *wh*re*. I stayed at a resort for a work meeting where I had to do a presentation to a bunch of "big wigs". My son went with me. He went to a Spring Training baseball game. We hung out under the palm trees by the pools. Went to the free *happy hour* every evening Did some shopping, and ate some very good Mexican and SW food. Did some networking, slept in sometimes, and soaked up a bit of the sun (since it is something I don't normally see here in the Pacific Northwest ) It was a good trip, and I hope to go back someday when I can do a bit more sight seeing.

Ohhh, sounds like it was pretty awesome - and free? I think they are looking for a partner from England !!! Hahaha, well we are both guilty of confusing it up then, me and musicfreak:roftl: The funniest part is that I spent quite some time looking at England's post trying to figure it out, and you'll notice in my first post that I DID get it right, and say to ask in the British thread, but then I completely forgot about that and was like "omg! Someone from USA - perfect!" But still sign up musicfreak, you just won't be England's partner I think it's the name that makes it confusing.
