    Packaging Hoarding

    Yes! I save all peanuts, bubble wrap and packaging paper. I do ship out quite a lot but I still have too much so I take the extra peanuts to a local gallery that ships out fragile goods. They are always really happy to receive it.... You can compost corn-based peanuts BTW.

    Scones!........And clotted cream (see post 13)!

    That is very ambitious making your own clotted cream! I am from the UK and during the summer before going to uni I worked at an outdoor cream tea cafe next to Snowshill Church (in the Cotswolds) run every summer by a farmer's wife. The happy summer memory is a little tainted by remembering how...

    God Awful service from Oregon Trails

    It's especially nuts since we are all potentially repeat customers...and we talk to each other on forums!

    God Awful service from Oregon Trails

    It seems that everything can be fine for years with MMS but then if there is a problem the owner takes it personally and the sh*%*t hits the fan in the most unpleasant way.

    God Awful service from Oregon Trails

    I recently ordered from OT for the first time and was disappointed to be overcharged by $4 on postage (already so expensive to Hawaii). And I was turned off by online complaints too. These owners just don't seem to get it that their behavior gets reported online and loses them business! The...

    A Little Dissapointed

    If she is not responsible for your stuff she could 'short' you. Also, I've never heard of a 15% fee for pulling your products out.... Some owners just want everything their way!

    FDA Warning Letter to doTerra

    From my understanding the increase in life-expectancy is more to do with sanitation, cleaner drinking water and understanding of how disease spreads than the use of drugs. Also, those numbers in the 1800's being so low are partly due to the infant mortality rate which was very high due to...

    Sweetcakes: Worth It? Must-Haves? Sales?

    The owner is not a soaper, he's a perfumer, and it looks from the reviews that most buyers do B&B and candles, plus personal perfume. A lot of people don't realize that the extreme concentration is simply undiluted... On the one hand they carry dupes that nobody else does but on the other hand...

    Sweetcakes: Worth It? Must-Haves? Sales?

    SOS was the first company I ordered from and I have hundreds of sniffies from them. They do have some fabulous dupes (and many that are way off). I have had problems with being sent incorrect FO's (usually a mix up between the M and W versions) but they do usually fix it. Their Tuberose used...

    Planning to purchase Oregon Trails FO's - feedback?

    Hi Jen, Whoops - I forgot I have samples of Tiare Blossom and Pikaki Lani from you! I do actually like both of them. I haven't liked any ginger blossoms I have smelled. They have all been too sharp (the flower itself is gorgeous). Thanks again for getting me onto Peak BTW - I did order...

    Oregon Trails 15% off

    15% off until June 15 (or whenever they have finished their move to Idaho). I have never ordered from them before but a sample swap got me interested :)

    cocoa butter: deodorized or not? BB or SC?

    Batches can vary so if you are ordering 10 lbs I would ask the company if it is from the same batch as the previous one you purchased.

    Infrared Thermometer Deal

    I know :) I never get any sympathy when I complain about expensive shipping either! Or my hot tin roof and the roosters....

    ground rice

    I saw some lotion bars at L ush with ground rice as an exfoliant. Doesn't make sense to me but L ush seems to be able to sell anything!
