Hi Everyone. I will email everyone who has responded with a # of bottles desired. I will try to guesstimate as close as I can on postage.
Each half-gallon jar weighs 2 lbs.

I sent my order through PayPal yesterday. :-)
I can't remember what you originally said, but do these bottles have any writings on them?

Okay ladies- The bottles are on their way to the ones who have paid for them.
Everyone who requested them but hasn't paid- if you pay tonight or tomorrow I can get them in the mail to you on Friday. If not I won't be able to mail them to you until after the 24th as I will be out of town.
Thanks
Alee |

Hi Ladies!
Shipping is way more expensive than I thought it would be! Yikes! To send out 4 boxes it was $60! I hope they all get there intact. If not, please let me know. I put insurane on each of the shipments just in case.
Also- I appolgize. I had to ship the bottles dirty. They have been sitting in an old dairy since 2001. I didn't have time to wash them all since I don't have a dishwasher. So please make sure you wash and sanitize them when you get them! I normally would not ship dirty items like that, but I figured you might want them sooner rather than after I get back from Wyoming.
Hugs

Hi Amanda!
I will make sure to take a picture today if I have time. I am scrambling to get everything ready for my trip to Wyoming. I am sure I am going to pack way to much stuff! I have never traveled with my baby before! :)

Okay-
So two ladies have emailed me and let me know that some of their bottles arrived smashed. Not just kindof broken or with a little knick or crack... but smashed to smithereens! So I went to the post office today to get information on claiming the insurance on each package. The kind post office guy said "Well, it looks like they got sent Parcel Post which is only sorted by machines. The boxes get shuttled around and dumped and other boxes dumped on top of them..." basically Parcel Post is the roughest type of shipping that can happpen. This is what my post office recommended when I told them I am shipping Glass Bottles! Does that make sense to you?

Oh yes- and if you ordered (and paid for) your glass bottles- please let me know! I will ship replacements via priority mail (the nicely handled mail) as soon as I get back. I will deal with the insurance later but I want to get the bottles back out to you all.

Mine got here just fine. I feel lucky!! I love them! Thanks for doing this Alee..they are perfect!! Did you think to ask if the dairy had any plastic caps that fit them available?? I just use plastic wrap and a rubber band on them right now..but would love caps if they have some.

Aunt Jenny! I am so so glad your milk bottles arrived safely! That takes a big load off my mind! They didn't use plastic caps at the dairy- just the paper pogs and foil. The box with them in it was not accessible at the moment, but maybe next time I can get some for you if you wanted.

I will look into it. My family is going wild over the milk bottles and my mom wants me to bring some with me when I come back to get married. So I will have to buy more in the next couple of months.

Hi Talitha-
Next time I am there I can get the smaller bottles which I am now realizing aren't pints, but half-pints! I saw a pint milk bottle yesterday and realized it was twice as big as the little bottle she gave me. I hope you get yours soon. As soon as I get back to Moscow I will track it if you haven't gotten it yet.

I just bought some of Alee's bottles when we went blackberry picking yesterday, and had to come look this thread up. I just love them! Alee, do you have access to the tiny ones or to gallon sizes? The ones I bought are 1/2 gallon and one quart, perfect for all sorts of things. I wonder how they'd do in the metal crates at an antique store I'm thinking of in Spokane...PastBlessings?
We make a difference. |
