I just got a GPS in a box like that but it was taped crooked and half squashed !!!! GPS was in the bottom unprotected and unharmed, Thank you Best Buy !!

Shame on them!

In Canada, they measure the box and you also pay by weight/volume. Probably would have been about $12 here.

My insurance requires us to do mail order medications. They arrive in a large box like the one pictured. You all know the size of a pill bottle.

Not even that, icon! My DGS and his friend got to them before I did! These were the 6 x 3" ones. The shipping was $4.92. Not awful, but un-necessary. Sure hope these Roxanne needles are worth it!

Kitsie, the other day I was ready to order some Roxanne needles and then got side-tracked. Fast forward a couple of days- I was cleaning out my room (it's been weeks of work!) and guess what I found????
YUP- I had some and forgot!! I don't even remember when or where I got them LOL
