whats youre email im con fused on the bubble thing

9/6/2007 6:24:46 PM

the "bubble thing", consists of you sending the grower that offers, (in a large manilla envelope) a self addressed, postage added, bubble pack envelope that the grower can return the seeds in. Also common courtesy is to add a written note, reminding and thanking for the offer.

As followup next year, either run a diary with pics on here or send via email to the growers,,they all like to see the results of their efforts and follow the progress of the "babies".

You might get some helpful advice along the line as an added bonus.

That's the usual protocol until a seed tosses a couple really big fruit. If that happens to free offers often dry up. Then you'll either need to procure them at auction or trade for them.

Hey SCBBBC,
Yep, its as simple as that! You will find that people on this board are very giving and generous. A simple manilla envelope with a "bubble insulated" manilla envelope inside (with stamps and a return address back to yourself) is all that is needed. That way they dont have to deal with paying for your stamps and writing your address etc. You come out way ahead with great seeds for the cost of stamps and envelops.

Here let me rephrase it for the umpteenth time and you'll even have more of a (or more confused) idea how to do it. Get 2 bubble envelopes, one made out to you stamped, stick that in another one made out to the person who your sending (stamped of course)it along with a note (thankyou note)my trick-123 cards has free email cards, I like to go there and send them one.
p.s. also in the diary section, Duster (click on his email, his diary posting is back a month or so) is giving away free seeds,, also dbhaskaran@aol.com has a annual free seed giveaway in november.
