Really? I put my samples into the return padded envelope, weighed it and got postage and it was like $3.40, then I stuck that envelope into another padded envelope and paid for the postage for that, and it was like $3.80.

Already do The Revolution Scent is heaven on earth. LOVE it. This envelope will probably carry the "E" Plate to you.

I assume if the postage covered it to here........it'll cover it to there.
More than what? A Box, or a non padded envelope?
More than a non-padded envelope. I have experienced this multiple times when at the post office. They charge a different rate if it is a bubble mailer.
Not sure why it would matter, should just go by overall weight. But I also don't want broken containers, so I'm going with padded anyway.
Oh I agree.

When I referred to them charging me a fortune it was a box and because of distance to California they said. Not a biggie

I missed the Pacific Rush bandwagon when it went thru. Took my mom to some junk shops in between work and came out with 4 so I'll be able to try this now.
Great find on the Pacific Rush! It's pretty good stuff. You will like those A&E samples too!
As far as the padded envelopes go...size is taken into account for packages. The post office has a template that they will try to pass an envelope through. If it fits in the template it's one rate. If it doesn't...it's another rate. I don't always see them do it, but I asked once and that is what they told me. Either way...you should be able to send up to six samples and a padded envelope in a padded envelope for at or under $4.00 First Class from most places in the US. I used 9x6 padded envelopes and it cost me I think $3.80.

Well, I hate to break it to you but those scents are meant for a woman. Avon used the term cologne for both sexes. That said, some guys still use them. Labels don’t matter, as long as you like them. Just wanted to let you know, so it makes more sense, if you don’t like them.

That confirms why I didn't care for them. Thanks for confirmation. She can have them.
