No regrets.

I’m on a real chai kick so I am totally thrilled to essentially get an ounce of the spice blend for free—I really, really want to try it out with Teavivre’s Bailin Gongfu Black!

Wow TC, that didn’t take long from the time Azzrian posted the deal, until you made your order. You are a tea ninja :)

It’s my complete lack of willpower. Someone says “deal” or “sale” and I’m beating a path to their website

Go add one item quickly to your cart then the discount to your cart THEN shop it should be okay but I would not tempt fate for too long.

28 assortment sample packs from teavivre??? That’s a lot of samples…

Small
yssah - Love is Tea (LIT) said 2013-02-20 22:05:56 -0500

one for each day of the month…that is um, economical! haha…coz it’s tea.

you will have enough time to ravage thru the Verdant and H&S before the Teavivre teas arrive..maybe.

ya gotta add the cost of the Rue lala coupons tho James :)

Small
yappychappy said 2013-02-20 22:10:23 -0500

I haven’t had many unflavored whites blacks or greens and am still trying to like pu`erh. That made ordering samples of the oolong a given haha. I’ve been burned on ordering any quantity of nonsamples many times and their sample prices are amazing.
I definitely added the USPS international to Teavivre order.

Hopefully Teavivre order arrives before the 1st. I’m moving back to atlanta shortly thereafter. And added price of Rue lala. Those things rocked. I bought 4 of them.

i wanted to buy 4 too but was not able to. just as well, i will be ordering wholesale from them soon anyhows ^^

Alphakitty said 2013-02-21 19:27:22 -0500

I… have succumb to yet another tea sale.

ESP Emporium

Honeydew/Lemon Sencha
Elderberry/Cassisberry/Aronia Green/White
Lychee/Bamboo Leaf Green
Ginger/Aronia Herbal
Pomegranate/Dragonfruit Green/White
Lemon Basil Oolong
Pink Earl Grey Green
Starfruit/Strawberry White
Dandelion Honey

All 50g, except for the honey which is 28g. I actually only got the honey because my order was $68, and apparently you need to spend at least 70 to qualify for the coupon discount. All in all cost me $36.75!

I actually need iced teas to make in bulk for summer so I’m not too worried about how much tea this is. I mean, I use between half and a quarter ounce for a big pitcher of each tea so these should only last me 3 brews each (hopefully!).

Small
Azzrian said 2013-02-21 19:33:42 -0500

That starfruit strawberry white sounds so yum!

Small
yappychappy said 2013-02-21 20:31:01 -0500

We have the same idea with the ESP and using it for iced tea! Likely copying a bit of your order (:

Ellyn said 2013-02-22 10:53:28 -0500

This week I made two small orders:

Amazon.com
Tea Forte Cucumber Mint Loose Leaf Tea Canister
(Purchased from Amazon because the shipping was free w/ Amazon Prime. Has anyone else purchased tea from amazon?) I did not want to make a big tea forte purchase…

Verdant Tea – Used the free shipping promo earlier this week…this is my first Verdant order.

Master Han’s Wild Picked Yunnan Black (sample)
Autumn Harvest Laoshan Green (1oz)

My orders were small because I am trying to go through the oodles of tea I already own!

Small
yappychappy said 2013-02-22 13:21:43 -0500

Cucumber mint is amazing. Ive had that one from tea forte thanks to azzrian and really liked it

Jackie T said 2013-02-22 13:14:33 -0500

I just placed an order with Capital Teas with my Rue La La coupon!

I got:
2 oz Butter Truffles
2 oz Pumpkin Spice
2 oz Key Lime Pie
2 oz White Champagne Raspberry
2 oz Mexican Mango Chili Mate
2 oz Banana Taffy

with shipping it cost me $11.45

Small
yappychappy said 2013-02-22 13:23:00 -0500

Thanks for always locating discounted gift certs for me. Capital seems to have good flavors. Cant wait to try them but ordering will have to wait a bit.

Small
Jackie T said 2013-02-22 13:26:31 -0500

I checked it out a bit before ordering, so if you spend $50 you get free shipping but it’s tricky because the gift certificate is considered a coupon. So say you put $50 worth of stuff in your cart, then apply the coupon, your order totals $10 and you don’t get free shipping. So my best advice is make sure that WITH shipping you come out to $40 or just be willing to pay the $5.95 in shipping. I think their tea looks good, I’ll review them once I get them and try them so if you can wait until then you can get my testimony first!!

Small
yappychappy said 2013-02-22 13:31:20 -0500

Will be waiting. Ugh at how they handle the things and people in general who count these as coupons not gift certs so I have to pay shipping. Im in love with pumpkin teas. Davids and della terras are both nice

Small
Jackie T said 2013-02-22 13:36:23 -0500

I also love both! Capital has a pumpkin cream and pumpkin chai…both rooibos, so I’m excited to try them. I guess it looks like the recepit listed the pumpkin chai rooibos as pumpkin spice but whatever.

Small
yappychappy said 2013-02-22 13:40:01 -0500

Ooo rooibos pumpkin. Yum! Glad to see another pumpkin fan!

momo said 2013-02-22 14:39:03 -0500

I am trying not to buy one of those certificates. I have their Totem tea from a swap, I should try it now to make an actual decision. That banana taffy one as well as the chili mate tempt me a lot.

Small
Jackie T said 2013-02-22 14:51:15 -0500

I think the offer is good for another 25 days or so. There’s plenty of time to taste test and think about it, plus I’ll post my reviews once I try these few!

Small
Incendiare said 2013-02-22 19:37:53 -0500

I couldn’t resist the Della Terra sale yesterday. Figured it would be a good time to try a bunch since it eliminates shipping costs:

Dubbele Chocolade
Earl Grey Creme
Oatmeal Raisin Cookie
Orange Brulee
Pineapple Upside Down Cake
Professor Grey
S’mores
Shamrocks & Shenanigans
Swiss Mountain

All 1 oz except for 2 oz EGC. Hope it’s a good EGC!

Also finally got off my butt and made a Verdant order last week. Missed out on the promotion but oh well, still pumped.

Small
MissLena said 2013-02-22 19:55:17 -0500

Oooh I like your order! I need to place a Della Terra order very soon as well.
