The “Deal of the Day” is updated everyday at 7am CST. There are no quantity restrictions; however, if we sell out the deal is over until the next day.  Here are a few questions we anticipate…

• Will you honor the price at a later time?
• I just bought this item yesterday.  Will you refund me the difference?
• If I buy “X” amount can I get a better price?
• When will this product be “The Deal of the Day” again?
• What is tomorrow’s “The Deal of the Day”?

The answers to the above anticipated questions are; No, No, No, We don’t know, and We won’t tell.  Anyway, we hope everyone gets the point.

We recommend clicking on the following link and book marking the page.  Why?  So you can easily check the “The Deal of the Day”…Daily.

1. Is the item being shipped fragile or large?

If yes, ship the item in Corrugated Shipping Boxes.

If no, consider one of the following mailing products; Bubble Mailers, Mailing Tubes, Poly Mailers, or Rigid Mailers. Mailers are a low cost alternative to boxes and are usually less expensive to ship.

2. If using corrugated shipping boxes, decide how the item(s) will be protected during transportation?

The most common methods of protecting the contents of a shipping box is wrapping the item in Bubble Wrap, suspending the item using Packing Peanuts, or filling the box with Kraft Paper in effort to stabilize the item.

3. Factor in the other supplies needed to ship the item(s) which include; Carton Sealing Tape, Shipping Labels, Packing List Envelopes, and a Tape Gun.

Now calculate the amount of materials it takes to package one item and multiply by the number of shipments per month. This will give you an understanding of how much packaging material is needed on a monthly basis. Finally, divide the cost of materials by the number of items you ship per month to arrive at your “per item” packaging cost.

Other things to consider:

• Don’t forget to insure your package. Both UPS and FedEx offer free insurance up to $100 per shipment. The US Postal Service does not offer free insurance.
• If you have an employee packing, you will have to calculate labor charges to cover the “time” aspect of packing.
• Buy your packaging supplies in bulk to save money.
