Short business leave = free stuff for customers!

Hey all! I will be heading out on a business trip to China on Monday morning – so if you want to place an order, please make it before midday on Sunday so I can mix it for shipment before I leave.

All orders made while I’m gone will get a free tea sample of their choice.

All orders made BEFORE I leave will get two free samples OR one ounce of Golden Sunrise Tea (a DELICIOUS keemun)!

This does not include sample-only orders, sorry!

I will reopen on the 5 of October and all orders will ship following the weekend, on the morning of the 8th.

Thank you all — hopefully I can get some great new product offerings while I’m there!

Cheers,
Brenden

I’m probably suffering from Lack f oxygen from being at the gym but did you ship to canada? I didn’t happen to be able to find it online.

tattooed_tea said 2012-09-21 19:19:47 -0400

shipping is quite expensive though :(

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 19:27:18 -0400

Yeah :( I ship within the US through USPS. Do you know of a cheaper international shipper?

tattooed_tea said 2012-09-21 19:30:07 -0400

I’m uncertain of that. Most stuff I get is usually through USPS.

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 19:35:23 -0400

Just looked it up…if i send it in a flat-rate envelope, i can get it to Canada for 11.95 – which I’ll cut down to 9.95 for the time being. Give me about 20 minutes and i’ll have that pricing updated :)

tattooed_tea said 2012-09-21 19:36:38 -0400

you are FABULOUS! now to remember which teas I wanted.

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 19:46:36 -0400

:) All in a days work! Haha. I’m changing it right now, was outside doing this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxy4_uSIOts&feature=share&list=UUIhSZ7loxDZ7166OavqfrhA :P

tattooed_tea said 2012-09-21 19:48:19 -0400

Well that looks like fun, but I am certain I would smash face first into the ground!

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 20:01:57 -0400

It happens all the time! Haha. :)

Okay, it shoulllld be updated now. I’m double checking it at the moment.

EDIT: Yep, it’s up and ready to order! I didn’t realize that international flat rate was actually cheaper to Canada than everywhere else so I made a specific price sheet for Canada.

tattooed_tea said 2012-09-21 20:52:26 -0400

Wonderful. Thanks for that. I will have to order tomorrow I forgot my purse at work.

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 20:53:27 -0400

Sounds great! I look forward to it! :)

Whoa. My favourite parts of the video:
- About halfway through, when I was finally able to unclench and breathe, no longer terrified that you were going to cut yourself in half.
- That bit when you rode the tramprope (trampoline + tightrope, natch) like a mechanical bull for a second. =]

(I see by the related videos in the sidebar that it’s called a slackline, but I like tramprope better.)

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 19:04:38 -0400

I sure do! Yes, it’s not listed, I’m working on a shipping info page. Cheers!

Azzrian said 2012-09-21 20:21:56 -0400

Is that you in the video?

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 20:27:29 -0400

Yep! :) Thanks for subscribing! :D

Azzrian said 2012-09-21 20:29:01 -0400

Thank you … awesome vid! Will look around some more when I have time. Your quite limber … I was thinking … Oh wait never mind not the forum for that. :)

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 20:30:00 -0400

Haha :D

tattooed_tea said 2012-09-21 23:40:54 -0400

Do you only accept PayPal?

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 23:42:05 -0400

I only go through paypal, but there is an option to check out with a credit/debit card on there if you don’t have a paypal account.

tattooed_tea said 2012-09-21 23:45:50 -0400

Perfect, thanks :)

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-21 23:47:29 -0400

No problemmmm! I’ll contact you after you place the order to see what samples you want :)

Tea Sipper said 2012-09-22 02:02:51 -0400

I saw yesterday that Smores is seasonal now… so I might order when that is available. Also, are there any plans for a Smores tea made with a smokey black tea? I know the current Smores is rooibos.

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-22 03:00:11 -0400

I’ve thought about a black tea version…not sure. The current one is smoked though. Did you see the Honey Graham Cracker?

tattooed_tea said 2012-09-22 18:15:13 -0400

Ordered…. YAY! made a boo boo on my order but whatever haha

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-22 19:20:21 -0400

By a boo boo do you mean to your wallet? :P

Got the order, what would you like for your samples?

tattooed_tea said 2012-09-22 19:46:39 -0400

Lol kinda. No I accidentally ordered two ounces of honey graham.

I would like The sleeping Bear Blend and Manistee Moonrise

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-22 19:49:17 -0400

Ahhh, well you won’t regret it at only $1.75 :)

Will blend those up and add em in for ya!

Tea and Trees said 2012-09-22 19:44:21 -0400

I ordered! Could I have the golden sunrise tea please?

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-22 19:46:49 -0400

Sure can! :) Thanks for the order!

Lynxiegrl said 2012-09-22 20:12:43 -0400

lol….cool a Michigan tea company! The name of Sleeping Bear and Manistee caught my eye then I looked at your website. I might be able to make a purchase with your company in the next few months. ENojoy your trip to China. I know, it’s a business trip, but no one says you can’t have fun on a business trip!

Tea and Trees said 2012-09-22 20:24:29 -0400

I just creeped your profile, and saw that you live in Royal Oak? I just moved to the area, we live in Sterling Heights currently but we go to downtown Royal Oak all of the time.

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-22 20:34:37 -0400

Michigan rocks :)

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-22 20:36:09 -0400

And yes, I’ll definitely be enjoying my trip…it’s more fun than business, actually…I’ll be doing some tea stuff but I’ll also be walking a slackline 30 ft above the ground for an event for Vibram Five Fingers shoes :)

Whispering Pines Tea Company said 2012-09-23 17:27:01 -0400

The store will be closing in 3 hours! Get your orders in for the free samples if you haven’t already! :)
