I think so. I have never bought that much from them at once personally. I think I did 30lbs last time

Did anyone determine yet if they will really ship 56 lbs of glass beads for free?

Yea, I tried putting that much in my cart and it does go to free shipping but I am just wondering if they will actually ship it for free? Because 50lbs in my cart was over $125 in shipping so if it is really going to charge that much for 50lbs I was unsure that they would ship 56 actually. Has anyone gotten that much at one time is what I was asking. If they cancelled the order and refused to ship that is one thing but if they went back and added a shipping fee to my order I can’t afford to pay that.

I have gotten those before but they are smaller than the Bountiful Baby ones. I sent Bountiful Baby an email and confirm that yes they will ship the 56 lb for free in the US only. So I ordered that. With the sale it is cheaper than I could get 50 lbs on eBay.

I wanted to let you all know I did indeed get my 56 lbs of glass beads They were sent in 2 boxes. One weighed 38 lbs 6 oz and the rest were in the other box. My idiot mail person put BOTH boxes in my mailbox! I am outraged! This is the 2nd time I have had packages that were super heavy put into my box! They think that because I have an over sized mail box that they can put super heavy stuff in there as long as the package will fit. I have been to the PO and on the phone with the main USPS filing complaints. When this happened a year ago with a 25 lb box of glass beads I spoke to my mail carrier and he said he knew nothing about it. Today my husband spoke to him when he drove up and once again he played dumb saying he knew nothing about it. Mark said, well maybe we had a substitute and it wasn’t you? He said all he would say is he knew nothing about it. Balogny! He knew if HE was driving yesterday or not! My mail box has been bent inside and is wobbly now from all this. I also had put a pink sticker on it that clearly says Please Do not put any items over 10 lbs in this mail box. Did not one bit of good as they ignored it! All because someone is too lazy to walk it up to my front porch or even just leave a notice for me to pick it up at the PO. GRRRRRR
