Just curious why the shipping is so high? These could easily fit in a flat rate envelope, or even just a First Class mail envelope. which should be less than $5.30 at most.

Small Flat Rate box would hold them all and it is $5.35

I asked the same thing earlier in this thread about the dry yeast.:confused:

I am choosing to ship via ups.

I see some people do this from time to time with UPS (or FedEx) and I wonder why. What is it about UPS/FedEx that I don't know that makes people shy away from USPS when it's clearly cheaper and would cause their items to sell faster? I could see for larger items (even so USPS Parcel Post is pretty cheap), but for small inexpensive things that fit in envelopes I am curious why you would be adverse to shipping USPS.

I'm honestly curious as to why, and am not just trying to be a jerk. I have no problem with you picking a specific carrier and sticking to it. :rockin:

It simply boils down to ease of use. I have a ups account at work and don't have to travel anywhere to get items shipped out. Also the post office in the city I live in is no where close to my home or work.
