Comment: i didnt find anything what is in my likes in my profile, also the value if it 10dollars, is a question as for example the cloth is cut from some other big piece /threads are coming out of it still/. Thank you for your effort though
Response: Sorry it was such a disappointment! The cloth I purchased which the store clerk cut off a bolt of fabric.....I thought it was cute since it had ANTS printed on it. I put in more than the required items and it totaled right at $10. Sorry I wasn't clever enough to find any tea that met your requirements and started with the letter A.

Comment: Cindy I had a ball with your alpha package. Loved it all, especially the cute tags. I hadn't sent my box out yet so reused your tags for my partner--giving You the credit of course. It was easy to tape over the item name for my stuff. You did get the type of paper right. Way to go on the Argyle. Heart for sure. julieB

Comment: Oh, my goodness! After having a not-so-great-day, today... I went to pick up the mail to find your *very special* parcel. Thank-you SO MUCH for the time, care, thought and effort you put into making my Whimsy Jar. I felt very special in receiving it - and it means so much to me. The whimsicalities that you sent are WONDERFUL. The Crystal Light is in my favourite flavour. I can't WAIT to try the tea - and the Movie Card is such a creative and thoughtful touch. Thank-you, ever so much. *HUGS* I adore all of the dotee crafting stuff you sent - the laces and buttons, most especially... and your jar is so cute! If I could give multiple hearts - I would. You surely touched my heart, C. Thank-you SO MUCH. <3

Response: Oh dear...it must have been lost in the mail! grrr, this makes me mad. I mailed two packages that day and sent you the following email. I went above and beyond with the stuff I put in it too. It was a 12x12 package and about 6 inches thick in a brown box, your postman wouldn't have left it for you at the post office would he? Let me know so I can make this right. Date: Aug 18, 2007 Status: Read To: BadKitty This message is a reply. View previous message. Subject: RE: RE: For the girls Swap Actually your package is on it's way...I took a long lunch break yesterday and got it put together and in the mail. Hope you feel better and thank you for your prayers for my Dad.
