Packing your sales. Free packing is at your finger tips

Free packing ismoney to an okay seller. This money saving tip is a great way to increase your profits on your okay sales. I use all the grocery bags which seem to multiply faster than rabbits. I place my item in a new clean bag (generic sandwich fold over kind, quart food storage or a very large item a garbage bag) be sure to seal plastic with a ring of masking tape.Then fluff up your saved grocery bags and fill in around your items. Make sure only to use clean dry bags and avoid refrigerated and frozen bags as the were damp from moisture. These bags are readily available and lighter then newspaper. I have not had a geplaint in 3 years, I use this method when my packing supplier has a dry spell.
You can store this bags in a very small area, and your save a bundle on packing supplies. The added bonus is that is a great way to recycle and reuse.
Now about boxes, if a box has alot of writting on it a very inexpensive covering is heavy dutywrapping paper, I buy approx. 6-8 heavy duty rolls after Christmas and wrap my recycled boxes in wrapping paper (I use white side only) then add packing tape around the whole box to secure all lose seams. This really has made a good impression on my buyers.
I forgot if you ship Priority or Express through the U.S. postal system, just stop by PO and grab a box. The is a toll free phone number (or you can order on line)for free boxes delivered right to your door. A reader of the post suggested I add this in. Hats off to you and Thanks.
