Hi guys - I just have to share how I get some awesome, new, quality shipping supplies for FREE!!!

Basically, I order (anything and everything) off of walmart.ca and the packers liberally use and send tons of shipping bubble envelopes, clean good boxes and TONS of plastic air pillows (I mean TONS).

Shipping is free if the order is over $50 which can easily be reached as we all know walmart carries everything under the sun!

My hubby laughs at me as I get so excited to see my usual large box arrive - guaranteed to be at least 50% full of those pricy plastic air pillows - the packers often use the incorrect box size and just fill them with packing material instead :). Often your order will arrive in many smaller ones, so you receive beautiful small to medium sized boxes, often with bubble wrap envelopes inside (for many liquidy products).

I just have my walmart list pad by the side of the computer and jot down things as we need them, then when I order online, I only order up to $50 and save the rest for the next order.

If you try it I swear you will be addicted - no more running around the stores, Walmart delivers everything!! (I don't recommend pickles 🙂 - a jar broke in transit and I had to refuse it and get it sent back).

Here is todays example below, a HUGE box half filled with packing supplies !!

Oops! Sorry that photo is obnoxiously large! But hopefully u get the picture,

that huge box only had a large ketchup, box of halloween treats, boys underwear, some shaving gel and Boogie Mist (yes, there is such a product, lol). The waste of packing supplies they send out is incredible!!! BUT I'll take em!!

thanks for listening to me go on about it - I just get so giddy over clean, beautiful, lovely, FREE shipping supplies and had to share!!

Thanks for the info. I'll definitely consider placing orders through them. Like you said, it doesn't take long to find $50 worth of merchandise at Walmart.

I don't know if you're familiar with Beyond the Rack. It's an online shopping site based in Montreal. Over the last 2 to 3 years, I've received tons of packing materials with my orders. I haven't had to buy air pillows .... ever. They also use a lot of the big, thick bubble wrap. As well, they always include samples of shampoo/conditioner; skin care; laundry products; crackers, candy, gum, you name it. You should check it out. I have to warn you, it's very addictive.

Have a nice evening!

Thanks so much - I just signed up for Beyond the Rack - I had never heard of it and it looks amazing! I will be doing some browsing after I get my oldest to bed :).

thanks again, have a good night!
