Forgive me, tea friends, for I have sinned. Thankfully, not all of it was tea, specifically, but more tea-related items. A bit of the damage I did today…

From Yunnan Sourcing (shipping was so costly for the two hardware items, I decided to throw in a tea in there, too):
Blue on White Phoenix Easy Gaiwan for Gong Fu Tea Brewing
Glass “Easy Gaiwan” made for Gong Fu Tea Brewing * 200ml
SST Stainless Steel Dual Layer Mesh Filter Strainer for Tea
Wild Tree Purple Varietal Black Tea of Dehong * Spring 2012 50 grams

From Art of Tea (30% off – free shipping):
1 x Aztec Spice (AZ) = $4.00
Size Sample Tin (Avg. 5-7 Cups)
1 × 16oz Glass Water Bottle (TAK16) = $16.00
Size Green
1 x Starry Night (STR) = $4.00
Size Sample Tin (Avg. 5-7 Cups)
1 x Santa’s Little Helper (SLH) = $10.99
Size Tea Tin (3.5 oz- Avg. 50 Cups)
(this tea is so cute, I can’t even!!)

From Black Bear Laboratory (Buy 4 lip-balms, get the 5th free + 20% off)
Hot Buttered Rum Lip Balm
Candy Cane Cheesecake Lip Balm
Cheesecake Stuffed French Toast Lip Balm
Pumpkin Chai Tea Lip Balm
Lemon-Mango Lassi Lip Balm

From RedLeafTea (40% off):
Bamboo whisk, spoon, & scoop
(almost bought matcha – but I really don’t need anymore. It was tough, though)

Bought one tin of KaiMatcha. The 20% off and free shipping on one tin sealed the deal.

Since WorldTeaExpo was doing 50% of their conferences, I bought a conference session about starting up a tea room. Don’t judge me ;)

And uh.. Butiki was having a really good sale, but I have so much tea right now. So I just bought a gift certificate from them to use at a later date to lock in the free offer.

Aaaaand I think that’s all. Eyeing that Banana Cheesecake Genmaicha for my BF, but I’m not sure. I’ve already spent so much already!

To be fair, there are lots of awesome tea deals I turned down over the weekend, too. Della Terra Teas and Verdant had some awesome offerings, but I really need to work on the teas I already have.

Butiki Teas said 2012-11-27 12:50:45 -0500

Oh my, that is quite a list. :)

Babble said 2012-11-27 19:35:05 -0500

Haha, thanks Butiki :)

…. aaand Red Leaf wins the “who can ship first after Cyber Monday” contest. They got my order out today. Very impressive!

Indigobloom said 2012-11-27 11:32:49 -0500

I haven’t posted here in awhile. Forgot all about this thread but here I am!
So, here goes.
KaiMatcha, small tin.
Banana Cheesecake Genmaicha and Apricot Brandy Honeybush from 52Teas
Oh and a few matchas from Red Leaf, I need to find my order so I can post it. But I know I ordered a Large wheat-grass because I love wheat-grass and didn’t want to run out for a long time :)
Yep, I have that much faith that I’ll like it! to buy a large without trying any first
and an order from Simpson and Vail which I am sharing with Sil!!
There were SO many other deals I wanted to indulge in… so very many!

Small
Sil said 2012-11-27 12:17:13 -0500

no no no silly.
Kally Tea AND Simpson and Vail AND verdant that you’re sharing with me AND Kittena…only way to indulge without spending 12038120398201938$

Small
Indigobloom said 2012-11-27 14:09:14 -0500

haha that’s right, forgot about Kally! and verdant, I was piggybacking, not sure if I can consider that my order lol
but yes! there is no way we could each put in an order and pay rent next week ha!!

Small
Indigobloom said 2012-11-27 14:12:34 -0500

I almost bought some of the Pu-erhs from Verdant last night. Not sure how I managed to stop!! probably because I knew Kittenna had done some for us so it would have negated the shippping savings there.

Londo Mollari said 2012-11-27 12:22:38 -0500

I did get 1 tin of Organic Pan-Fired Pagoda from Hugo Teas for $6.79 + shipping. There being only $19 in my checking and $0.01 in my savings account when Black Friday hit I guess I still bought more than I should have. Overall though I think I won, because I was talking to the s.o. on Friday morning and he decided that Verdant’s Golden Fleece sounded like something I needed to own and he wanted to try. He ordered me 4 ounces for an early Christmas present! I still have plenty that I want to order for myself, but this paycheck is going to be all gifts for others, and the next check after that will arrive just in time for the (hopefully) awesome AFTER Christmas sales. (HINT HINT!!)

You subtotal + taxes don’t add up to your total. . . were you accidentally charged shipping?

Adagio Teas:
Sherlock Blend (3oz blend in pouch)
