FAMOUS TURTLE'S TIP OF THE DAY
While you're looking for treasures, keep an eye out for shipping materials such as foam, cardboard, boxes, packing peanuts, etc. You can often find things in the free boxes, garage sales, recycling centers and even stores. A lot of these materials are really useful in shipping and can be very expensive to buy. Smaller retail stores (my personal favorite is our local Dollar Store) will often be more than happy to give you their boxes for free to save them the expense of recycling them. Keep your eyes and mind open to the possibilities!

I bought heavy duty gold poly bags at a garage sale for 2 bucks the other day. I don't know what they were used for but they are great for shipping my ebay treasures.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I have been having a lot of luck with children's foam floor mats. Whenever I come across them in the free boxes, I always snatch them up, you never know when your going to need some padding for your items.
