I have a customer asking if we still have the fat mop? Apparently it is used for skimming before making gravy.
 
No, we no longer have that item available. I like mine, though.
 
I have one new in package. $6.50 including shipping. Email me if you want it.
 
When I first heard about the oil spill, I thought that they need an industrial sized one of these to sweep across the surface of the ocean.... (hey, a girl can dream!)

thanks everyone. I am going to ask my customer if she wants to pay for shipping from NC to Ontario. How large is the item? Would it fit in an envelop. Can someone point me in the right direction on where to find out how much it would cost. Sorry new at this, never purchased something from another consultant, canadian or us. I guess if it's lots to ship it and she really wants it, then she will pay.

Oh, I didn't realize that you were in Canada. It will fit in an envelope. I would sell it for $5 (US dollars) plus shipping to Canada or $6.50 shipped within the US. If you send me an address I can check the shipping cost next time I go to the PO.
 
It's not particularly large. A padded envelope would suffice.
