    In Canada, they measure the box and you also pay by weight/volume. Probably would have been about $12 here.

    My insurance requires us to do mail order medications. They arrive in a large box like the one pictured. You all know the size of a pill bottle.

    Not even that, icon! My DGS and his friend got to them before I did! These were the 6 x 3" ones. The shipping was $4.92. Not awful, but un-necessary. Sure hope these Roxanne needles are worth it!

    Kitsie, the other day I was ready to order some Roxanne needles and then got side-tracked. Fast forward a couple of days- I was cleaning out my room (it's been weeks of work!) and guess what I found????
    YUP- I had some and forgot!! I don't even remember when or where I got them LOL
