I am actually curious to see how many are actually interested, honestly. Right now I am in a state of bliss, as there is not much better than to enjoy a cup of tea with a good friend, and as of right now, there is at least 10 moments in my near future.

I agree with Breathless. I think it would be fun to see what the interest level is and then any future exchanges could be split into two rounds instead of one big one if need be.
I don't think it would be too bad if someone got a nice padded envelope and mailed the bags out individually inside. Question: I made a huge assumption and should get some clarity.....is this just for bagged tea or will loose tea be sent out as well? |

PS In case I wasn't clear everyone is going to be given a master list of the addresses and is responsible for mailing out the individual tea bags. I am list maker only. Kind of like how we handle the postcard exchange.

I believe one stipulation has to be set, tea has to be tea bag for any that is crossing the border into Canada and California, loose leaf is also acceptable as long as it is dried. I love my fresh tea recipes, however live plants can not cross the borders. Bagged tea and dried is acceptable. The cost really comes down to a stamp for each person, reasonable I think.

Plus, you can tuck a tea bag inside a card very easily and mail it with a stamp.

If it is loose leaf there are tea bags that can be bought to put it into as well.

For me, that would be an additional expense I wouldn't want, which gets into what CCB was touching on earlier. For those that don't have enough tea at home that they are willing to share, there's the cost of the tea itself and then, if you don't have enough envelopes or cards or other mailing accoutrements, there's that cost in addition to the cost of postage.
Personally, I have tons of cards/envelopes and whatnot so that's not an additional cost for me for the exchange but I only keep boring tea at home so I'll have the cost of finding something that I think might be fun plus the postage. That's in my comfort zone so that's what you all will get. Pre-bagged tea.....unless something amazing happens and I get a killer deal somewhere. For the crafty types, once you've used your tea bag, you can use it to stain your papers to age them. Each tea will give you a different outcome so I think I'm going to set aside some neutral or cream colored papers and do a little craft experiment with what is sent to me to see how they all come out. Fun! |

I pretty much only keep loose leaf tea at home, so I decided to buy a tin of tea bags that are individually wrapped.
Cheapie me was just going to stick them in a small envelope, but I suppose I could find some inexpensive note cards. For me, it really is just about the tea and the socialization/bonding, so I am perfectly fine with folks just dropping a tea bag in a stamped envelope and mailing it as is. I think this would be a fun thing to do on a frequent basis as long as the cost is kept at a minimum.

So, I had to make a stop at Walgreens today for a ship-to-store pickup, and grabbed a box of folding note cards with envelopes while there. They are certainly not the uniquest (there's a fun, 67 point scrabble word! Lol) cards around but the price was okay, 50 for $9.99 with 2 different designs in the box, and should serve the purpose.

I decided I'm going to close the sign ups a week early just because we have tons of interest already, and I don't see a need for another week. Plus, I'm excited and want to get this show on the road!
