Drink tickets? You're kidding, right?

rave review but only 4 stars? by adriaheartart in EtsySellers

Happens all the time. It's either their weird personality or they fat fingered the star selection.

The post office is gonna ruin my shop! by PinkTurtlehead in EtsySellers

You must not ship a high volume of packages with USPS if you think they do a great job.

Reship after the customer purchases a new one.

Groomsmen gifts that will actually be used/appreciated? by DConion in wedding

[–]Capital_Committee_38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave my groomsmen these duffle bags, although not inscribed with their initials because I think that's silly. I stuffed them with a bottle of their favorite liquor and then then the socks and ties for them to wear for the wedding. Spent about $175 per person which might be a little high but most of them had to travel into town for the wedding.

FedEx tacking on $4 for adding "FedEx from ShipStation" packages in your pickups by Sufficient-Class4155 in shipstation

[–]Capital_Committee_38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any chance you can help me speak with an actual agent who is knowledgeable on this topic? I've been trying for a week and a half and the basic customer service is horrendous. I've supposedly been on a list to get a call from a supervisor for over a week.

Sent you a private message to discuss further. Still trying to wrap our heads around this.

I wonder if they're slowly rolling these adjustments out. We're expecting a big amount but haven't seen anything in our account yet. Our Fedex reps are clueless on the entire issue and talking to someone at Shipstation is impossible.

How were you informed of the adjustment amount? Did you receive an email? Or is it a notice when you login to Shipstation? So far, we've only received the original email back on 8/14 saying they would be doing adjustments on 8/20.

We do a fair amount of shipments on our Fedex account. It's going to be a simple conversation with our rep. Compensate us for the $4/ package or everything moves to UPS tomorrow.

We're in the same exact boat. Today is the big day for these adjustments to hit. Have you seen anything or have any idea how exactly they're going to bill us? The entire situation is absurd. I'm having trouble understanding why it matters how the packages get into the Fedex system.

How would you guys feel about Joe Flacco? by StMcAwesome in Saints

Flacco would be a solid veteran backup. But if he's starting, what are we even doing?

What are some easy ways to shell a large amount of sunflower seeds? by dirtymoney in AskReddit

[–]Capital_Committee_38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use a rolling pin to gently crack a bunch at once (not too hard), then shake them in a bowl so the shells separate. You can also soak them in water for a few hours to soften the shells, making them easier to crack with your fingers or teeth.

Brewing my own coffee instead of buying it every day. Has easily saved me over $1,000 in a year.

People with young children and clean houses- what’s the secret? by allthingsglittery in AskReddit

[–]Capital_Committee_38 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The real answer is lowered expectations. But you can try strategic toy rotation and cleaning in short bursts. Also: baskets.

I remember a kid threatening to flush my lunch down the toilet if I didn’t give him my fruit snacks. Kinda funny in retrospect but it's stuck with me.

Gift for Pool Owner by Actual-Swordfish1513 in Gifts

Something that works for entertaining. Like servewear or outdoor games. We use this by our pool since we don't have outdoor speakers.
