  1. Saffire Blue just announced lower shipping rates.

    From the front page...

    Saffire Blue has just completed negotiations with our shipping company and would like to announce a HUGE shipping discount, to some areas more than 50% cut - somebody hinted that our shipping was a little higher than other suppliers - we heard and have done something about it - Now what other hints do we hear?

  2. Ah, come on guys! Did you not read where they state: "A large portion of the proceeds from each sale of The Eighth Continent will be donated to a selected charity that helps to provide clean water to disadvantaged third world countries." :rolleyes2

    For that price they better fly me (and some friends) to some exotic spa for the ultimate bath experience!

    Off to tell hubby to start saving his pennies! :laugh2:

  3. Jen,

    I know how you feel because this has happened twice before to me. One for over $10,000 and another for $50.

    Why didn't I sue (even after consulting a lawyer) on the $10,000 case who told me I had an excellent chance of winning?

    I had to file in THEIR jurisdiction which was over 4 hours away. I would spend a full day driving to file. Cost to file was around $50. Then spend countless hours putting my case together. The lawyer said that I would have to show up in court even when it could be put off countless times. He said even 3 times being put off would now mean 32 hrs invested and zero return. He also pointed out even if I won the case I would still have to collect. All this time and energy and there was a high possibility I would not collect? It wasn't worth the gamble.

    Did I want to sue? You have no idea how bad I wanted to sue. Personal satisfaction would mean a lot to me.

    This was the first from the Hard Knocks of Business lessons learned in my business years.

    This $10,000 lesson probably saved me from more costly business mistakes.

    Now the $50 one I tacked on business administrative fees to boost it over the $500 mark and turned it over to a collection agent. Will I ever get my money? Nope. However, I hope the collection agent makes their life hell. :) (It's had to find a collection agent to take anything under $500)

  4. I am sorry to say Jenn here in Canada we have to include every ingredient

    in anything that has to do B&B ask me how I know? and they have to be in

    some type of French to:)

    Jen,

    I go to Lush in White Oaks Mall (London, ON) and they drop the product in a yellow bag without an ingredient label.
