Mystery Boxes?

Friends & Family,

Our family has been lucky enough to get to spend Christmas in Germany with my mom. One of my favorite things to do, of course, is walk the aisles of the German stores and drool over all the candies and treats. It was also fun to do in France, where my daughter & I stopped after a trip to a German town close to the border. It got me thinking about my friends in the states and how cool it would be to share these things with them if they wanted.

So, I'm going to offer (temporarily, obviously) a "mystery box" of sorts for those who are interested in getting a box of random German (or French) treats. I thought about creating an Etsy page for it, but don't want to worry about the fees or not being able to "sell" products that I didn't make, so I'm just putting it here!

This should be very simple. If you send me $10 (not including shipping), I will fill a flat-rate box with $10 worth of things! Shipping will depend on the size of box you want. I rounded up to the nearest dollar to cover gas, but I'm not trying to make any money--just share some of the cool things I'm finding here!

Small: $6
Medium: $12
Large: $16

You can send payments to me using PayPal. Go to the "Send Money" tab, plug in my email and the amount of money you want to send, click over to "Personal" instead of "Purchase," and select "Payment Owed" in order to avoid any fees.

When I get your payment, I will touch base to get an address. I can't guarantee certain products and they will be completely random. If you end up with something that doesn't appeal to you, give it to someone and share the awesomeness that is German candy.

I hope this works! It sounds like a lot of fun and I'm excited to share my experience with you guys.

  1. Ooooohhhh, I still remember the German goodies you brought back all those years ago. I love this idea! & once I make it to work, I'll definitely be placing an "order". :)
