Such a shame

Mighty Leaf tea company just lost a customer... when I learned that the shipping cost for one box of 15-teabags of "green tea tropical" was going to cost $7.95US. That is exorbitant. And a real shame, because that is very tasty tea.

It was in a sampler box that was in my Giftmas stocking and I've been eking it out but am now savouring the last cup - and the local suppliers only have the gift pack. Dang. But I won't pay more to ship a light-weight box of tea than it would cost me to buy a pound, a whole pound!, of chocolate-covered brazil nuts.

I have my priorities. :)
