Shipping Cost Inquiry for Merrill Wedding Registry Cards

[ahammons]

I have a bride for an upcoming shower that wants me to order the Merrill Wedding Registry cards. Is there a way to find out the shipping cost before actually submitting the order?

Okay, so this is sort of related to this question... the bride is offering to pay for the cards. I thought about just buying them for her, but I don't know. Does anyone else buy these for the couple, or do you get the money from them??

I dont usually buy that kinda stuff for my hosts/brides. Just cause they are pretty pricey And Merril's shipping is way too much I think. All I ordered from them were some host envelopes, and a t-shirt and they charged me $12 in shipping!! I was really surprised. That is a lot to charge for shipping. I usually go on supply order and buy the bridal apron for the bride and let everyone sign it at the shower. Thats usually all I do for my brides is the apron, it is $10 on supply. I try not to spend anymore than that on hosts.
hope this helps.

I've got a box of the personalized registry cards. When needed, I just give brides a handful. The personalized ones come in a box, like business cards.I guess it depends on what other stores in your area do. If they charge for cards, then go for it. I'd feel funny charging for them.

You can check the shipping rates on Merrill's. They go by total amount of order, not weight, so it ends up being costly on some things. If you click on the help link, a popup window will come up and close to the bottom, under Shipping and Handling, it'll give you a chart of shipping charges.

Thanks! I didn't know we could do this.

The shipping isn't going to be much, so I think I'll just buy them. If she doesn't need them all, then I'll have extras just in case!

Yeah, I didn't want to charge her for them - it sort of shocked me when she asked the price, then how I wanted her to pay me. lol
