I'm leaving this open to anyone who is interested. I need to clean out my seed box. Most of what is in there IS old, at least 2 or 3 years old, some are definitely older. They are a combination of ones I have purchased as well as ones that I received in trades. I have NOT tested germination on these....it would take me all year to do so. But I did grow some things last year from some of these seeds. So basically, this is at your own 'risk'. But if anyone is interested....let me know and I can send these out. Oh, and they are a mix of flowers, herbs, and veggies. Just thought I'd do this before throwing them out.
Thanks, Kim
Edited to make sure that everyone caught the post further down about sending a SASBE for the seeds. I know there are a couple on the way, as soon as I receive them I will start mailing them out. I will note on here when I send them out so you know to look for them. Thanks again everyone!

Anyone up for some grab bags?
Also.....anyone know now what it costs to mail a bubble mailer? Back when I was doing more seed trading it was $0.60 but I'm guessing it has went up by now. Or what do people usually ask for when doing these kinds of mailings?
Thanks, Kim
If you have no takers, I can use them for my youth at church.
There's plenty to go around....I'll put you down!
:) Kim
I would like to try!! I am wintersowing this year, and need some varieties. Also, the PO told me they are usually .63 for bubbles
I would too! Please put me down!
Put me down too... I can just use them in my own personal garden
Bubble can be 66 cents
By the way I got your trade today! TY!!

I can send a sasbe, so you don't have to spend your own $$
I would love to have some of your seeds, especially veggies.
Postage for a bubbler tends to run 63 cents, but depending on the wiehgt can run 87 cents. I would be happy to send postage and a label if you have bubblers, or an SASBE if that's easier for you.
Thanks for the offer!
Your welcome gardengirl! Haven't received yours yet, but it's probably floating in the mail somewhere...lol. I'm sure it will get here soon. If everyone could send me a SASBE that would be great. I am hoping to include 15 or so packs in each bag, so if you think the higher postage is a good idea then maybe we should go with that. If all who responded could their envelopes and postage to me, I'll get those out next week then. My addy is:

Thanks everyone!

I'll send you a bubbler with $1 and a self addressed label inside to readdress the envie, k? I will get it out on Monday.
You're a doll - this is soooo exciting. (Ain't I a boob? I trade for exactly what I want and don't get nearly as excited as I do when I get s'prise pack! 'Tis a sad thing - some folks just NEVER grow up!!!)
Thanks again!!!
I am sending a bubbler tomorrow with label and funds. Love the seeds. If you want to get rid of a score, can use for the school where I work.
Mine was sent out today!
Mine, too!
made an edit at the top
Just wanted to let people know I have not yet received any envelopes, but when I do I will mail them out and post here.
Thanks, Kim
Wow - that's some kind of slow mail service!
Sequee....I know, isn't it? I have a trade that was mailed 2 weeks ago that hasn't arrived yet either. I'm starting to think they are hording my bubble envelopes for some reason. Maybe I should contact them? A priority mail box arrived on time though.... Hmmmm.....
I'll keep you all updated.
Thanks, Kim
Well....another day gone by and still nothing in the mail. I think I will contact the local post office. However, they may not be much they can do. I am sorry everyone, I did not think I would run into this kind of problem.
:) Kim
Not your fault!
I have my envelope ready to mail tomorrow.
Ok everyone, finally I received some envelopes! I got three on Sat and will be mailing them out tomorrow. They are:
KayKay1010
yardqueen1948
luvsyorkies
When I receive more I will post here. Thanks all!
:) Kim
Kim.
Did you get mine yet?
Those three are the only ones I've gotten so far, makshi. I'll keep my eye out the rest of this week. Still not sure why they are arriving so slowly.
Kim
Sequee...I received your envelope today....a week and a half later! I don't understand why it is taking so long for these to arrive. I will get yours out tomorrow. As for everyone else, I spoke with someone at the post office, but they were about as helpful as a brick wall. Unfortunately there is nothing I can do. Please bear with me and hopefully everyone else's will show up eventually.
Thanks, Kim
I have decided that the rest of the envelopes are just never going to show up. This is very frustrating. I do not want anyone to get left out of getting seeds, so to those people whose envelopes have not shown up I will use my own envelope to mail out. I feel bad for the wait and I do want to be able to get rid of these seeds so I have room for next near. Snboyken, I may give yours a couple more days just to see if it arrives this week. I hope this is ok with everyone. Again, sorry for all the mail troubles.
Thanks, Kim
Thats fine if it doesn't show up I can mail another.
Thanks everyone for understanding. I mailed out envelopes today to:
Sequee (sorry I was a bit behind getting this one out)
froggie42
makshi
gardengirl1960
If there is anyone I missed please let me know. I still have seeds available to mail out, I have reopened the thread if anyone else is interested.
Thanks, Kim
