    Just to let you know, if you don't have the 150 posts required to open attachments, you can join as a "Supporter" for $30, and you will have full access to attachments. That's what I did and it was honestly one of the best $30 I have ever spent.

    Okay and I absolutely LOVE this tote from Dollarama. I found this a few weeks ago in a Dollarama that I don't usually shop at. Of course, this was this only one left at the store and I haven't seen them since. I love it so much and I wish I could've found these for my OOT bags instead. SO nice!!! Canvas burlap type material and the button is so cute! They are $2.25 each but definitely worth it! I use it for my OOT stash now lol. Again, my phone takes crappy pics :(

    Hi All, Pokey Holly kindly posted this bag (the jute one 2nd down in picture) that she found at Dollerama, and I became obsessed!!! with them.

     

    I managed to pick up 10 of them, but I need 20 to 25.  crybaby2.gif  I did a mojor roadtrip, and went to 12 different Dolleramas  (from Trenton to Kingston) and no luck. I then did some research on Dollerama, and managed to communicate with the Vice President of Merchandising to try to get more. It turns out they are a discontinued item.....so no luck, nor can they tell me which stores if any have any left.

    If anyone finds any at their local Dolleramas, and would not mind picking them up, I will gladly pay you $4 each (plus shipping) for them (they are selling for $2.50). I am only interested in the natural jute color with beige trim, although they do come in brown, navy and green.

    Thanks so much and I am keeping my fingers crossed that my fellow BDW Brides can find some.

    Bonnie

    PS - - If anyone finds any, they can PM me here, and we can arrange payment and shipping.

It's best to sign up online for Michaels coupons we waiting until we got 40-50% coupons and then bought them because they are pretty expensive. I think normally they are like $25-$30 for the pack so it's a decent deal if you have coupons.

    I was not able to find any cheaper but if you check out ebay they might have good deals. I bought tiny little ones to attach to my place cards and they were super cheap for 100 and shipping wasn't too bad. (they are all really small though- 1inch or less)

     

    I bought my Starfish from Deltona Seashells. If I remember, the website was www.deltonaeashells.com. I purchased 24 Phillipine Pencil Starfish - Medium Size - - 4 to 6 inches,  which were 75 cents each.

    My order totalled $54 before shipping, since I also purchased a number of other things. The website automatically assessed a shipping fee of $34 approx, since it is ( or was at the time of my order) geared to shipping UPS. I communicated with Richard (the owner) prior to placing the order though, and had specifically asked him if he could ship just using US Postal service (USPS Priority) so I would not have to pay a hefty shipping fee, and then also be assessed brokerage and duty by UPS. He was great to work with, and he and I agreed that since he did not have experience shipping to Canada I would be his 'test case'. I paid the $34 shipping and the next day, he refunded me $20 after having USPS calculate the actual shipping costs. Included in my order was a fairly large Nautilus Shell, which was wrapped with a fair amount of paper and bubble wrap, so I would think that if you were just ordering starfish, the box would be substantially smaller.

    I am super thrilled with the starfish, so it might be an option.

    Any questions, I am happy to try and help

    Right now Canadian Tire has the bubba mugs on 50% off....so we got those for our bridal party.

     

    Went to Dollarama and got clear tumblers for the guests....we also picked up hand sanitizer 2/$1, tylenol, advil, mouth wash, and tums.

     

    We're still looking for lip balm with some SPF....dollarama has nothing, and everything else I can find is $3 or more EACH! Any ideas for this ladies? :)

     

    Also still on the hunt for totes....every website I've found is US only :(

     

    So all of you who are looking for Chapstick/Lip Balm, here is a good site that ships to Canada. (link posted below). It is Bulk Apothecary, and the great thing is that the tubes are white with no labels. In trying to do a sample of my personalized ones I bought a couple of the dual cheap lip balms at Dollerama, but getting the label off to put the personalized label on was a HUGE job. I could NOT imagine doing a large lot of them.

    The ones at Bulk apothecary are not SPF, but for the price, they canâ€t be beat. They come in 6 flavors and are 28 cents each. The cost to ship 60 of them to Ontario Canada is approximately $20, so for the cost of the lip balms plus shipping, they work out to approx 61 cents each, and again.....plain white tube, so personalization is easy!!

    Here is the link

    Did your guests love them and use them?

    I have not had my wedding yet, but I am hoping they will love them!! I am also hoping the batteries hold out since I ordered them way too far ahead (wasnt thinking when I ordered)

    the shipping was about 6 weeks, which was crazy since I've ordered from China lots of times, and it has never taken that long!

    In fact, I ordered a lot of 40 sunglasses from China almost 4 weeks after the watches, and got them first!

    they are sold out since I purchased all the ones they had remaining, but the site has alot of beautiful dresses for cheap price. material is great as well, the dresses shown above are definitely great quality (especially since the price is pretty cheap, i was surprised). what color are you looking for?

    What was the fit like from this seller? Was it fairly true to size?

    Thanks

    I'm still waiting for the watches to ship. I ordered 2 lots of 20 and it came to $23.36. I asked for certain colours so maybe that's why they haven't shipped yet? Apparently these are waterproof. They sell the same ones at the Dollarama I believe.... Hopefully they come soon so I can let you know how they turned out!! It is a great idea to have in the bags. :)

     

    Hi all, I posted on this thread a couple of months ago re watches, I think I was actually the one who started the crazy notion of putting these in OOT bags. I ordered from DH gate - - I was specific about colors (needed Fuschia & Orange) and they took a little while longer to receive than it would normally take from China, but the watches are awesome !! The colors were perfect, none of the watches were 'DOA', and I have tested them, they are totally waterproof. A GREAT purchase at 40 pieces (color specific) for $32.00 including the shipping.

    If anyone is interested, here is the link for the ones I bought

  10. Hi Debra

    I am the Bride who sent you the 1st reply to your ad. I have been trying to send you a PM ALL morning, but I keep getting error messages. As I indicated in my reply this morning,

    I am interested in all of the glass wine stoppers and some of the silver ones. For shipping purposes, I could have them shipped to my sister who lives in NY state at zip code 14227, or dependant upon the cost, I could have them shipped to me in Canada.

    I would also be interested in some of the ID holders with bracelets if you would be willing to sell less than 24. I can be contacted directly at email [email protected]

    Thanks

    Bonnie
