ILVCANDLES Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Hello! I am having a hard time deciding which bag size to get. Which one do you think is more ideal to have??? 5" x 3" x 8" or 8" x 4" x 10". Since I am buying in larger quantities I really can only afford to buy one or the other. Any suggestions would be great!:smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlesprite7 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 What are the bags for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILVCANDLES Posted December 14, 2008 Author Share Posted December 14, 2008 Mostly for Jar Candles. One candle fits great into the smaller size bag but it also can fit into the larger size bag. I am thinking when I start doing more shows which bag size is more ideal to have.Thanks Again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evesorto Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Check out Nashville Wraps........they have both those sizes in a clear frosted........and right now they have a bogo sale. You can buy the big size and then recieve the smaller size for free.hthEve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILVCANDLES Posted December 14, 2008 Author Share Posted December 14, 2008 evesorto thanks for the info. I just checked out NW and it looks like I have to buy 2 to get 1 Free. They word it kind of tricky. Thanks again for the help!:highfive: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicky_CO Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 No it is buy one get one I just order a bunch of stuff go ahead and load the stuff in to you cart the free one shows up in the cart. They are calling the 2 for 1 deal you get 2 for the price of 1.Most of my candle sales use the rose and cub sizes. Single candle sales fit nicely in to the rose and depending on the size of the candle I can get up to 6 in the cub size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alajane Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Vicky, thanks so much for this info! I love the Cub size and needed to order some but would have waited until the beginning of the year. But with BOGO, I can't resist doing it now!!Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alajane Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Just had to come back to this thread. I'm so happy to have seen it--I was able to order 1,000 Cub-size bags for $59.00. Even adding the $20 shipping give me a final cost of 8 cents each! I've been buying Avon bags through my daughter for 13 cents each just because I'm a cheapskate, but much prefer bags without the Avon logo!Evesorto, thanks so much for posting about this bogo sale! And I also really like getting my tissue paper from Nashville Wraps so I can get the smaller sheets but don't want to buy only tissue because of shipping. (I do tend to get excited about good sales:cheesy2: )Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraciS Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I love Nashville Wraps and especially when they are having a good sale! I just got 20 cases of bags - bogo & free shipping. You can't beat that. Course I still have to find space to store them but I'll deal with that :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evesorto Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 So glad it worked out........keep in mind for future reference, if you spend $300 with Nashville, you will receive free shipping.I noticed last year that my few orders to Nashville eventually added up to $300 (in three orders). Thinking ahead can save about $50-70 in savings (shipping). I'm hoping that I will get thru the year w/o ordering again.Eve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alajane Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Traci--that was excellent planning on your part. If I had anywhere to store that many bags, that would be a great idea. I do like the fact that the plastic bags take up much less space than paper bags, so they seem a good deal both price wise and space wise. I was very surprised that my order shipped in the individual boxes, so I had 5 boxes (including the tissue paper I ordered) with a shipping charge of around $28. I guess that's a pretty good shipping rate for 5 boxes!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get ready to place a Nashville order I make about 4 phone calls to let everyone know I am ordering they do the same for me. Some times I could use something from Nashville but not no where near enough for the $300 so I would have to wait till I was ready but if you get a little help from other local people you save all of you some money and not have to spends as much.
