Shipping boxes?

[HullStreetStudio]

I've been trying to find some smaller boxes like 5x5x5 and I can find super reasonably priced ones but it's the shipping them that's killer, you can get 25 for 6 bucks but then shipping is 11!

have you checked amazon? sometimes you'll find free shipping with them.
what about uline.com?
here in AK everything costs a fortune to ship and have shipped - I have to add it into the cost of my items...

Have you checked here on etsy? I've ordered my last couple orders just on here, because the cost + shipping was far more reasonable

As weird as it sounds, I did a search on Craigslist and found a great box supplier. There are a lot of distribution companies that are willing to sell extra in bulk for extra cash. I bought about $80 worth of boxes for about 1/2 and no shipping. They were located on my husbands route home from work.

I have used ULINE a lot but agree the shipping is a killer. I use boxes that are a lot bigger and the shipping has been $20 - 30 to get my boxes. Ouch!
