If it's the post office, I bring my item with me and take care of everything there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-are-trying-to-figure-out-how-to-ship-something#post-2102717 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 14:34:08 +0000 shinymama 2102717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use flat rate boxes since I know what the price point will be up front. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-are-trying-to-figure-out-how-to-ship-something#post-2102695 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 14:24:05 +0000 raspberries 2102695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, take it to the post office! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-are-trying-to-figure-out-how-to-ship-something#post-2102626 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 13:55:22 +0000 avivoca 2102626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do what's most cost effective and take my items to the post office with me to judge how big of an envelope I will need. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-are-trying-to-figure-out-how-to-ship-something#post-2102623 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 13:54:29 +0000 catomd00 2102623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually ask what the best/most cost effective option is (with products in tow!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-are-trying-to-figure-out-how-to-ship-something#post-2102615 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 13:53:01 +0000 daniellemybelle 2102615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>...Do you take your items into the post office and try out different envelopes/boxes/etc. there? Is that weird? Or do you estimate and buy something and bring it home and try it, and I guess return it or save it for later if it doesn't work?</p> <p>I know some of you order shipping materials online but I don't sell enough to do that! </p>
