Leicester_H Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Anyone know of anywhere I can buy a nice Terracota egg rack (like standard egg box) to store my girl's eggs without having to pay half as much again on postage ? I like this one https://www2.securesiteserver.co.uk/wmpot/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=191 but resent paying £5 P&P on an £11 item. Am I just being mean ??[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Wow, what a gorgeous item! I've no idea where you can find it for cheaper postage, but they are lovely. I will add that to my list o fthings to buy for when I get my chooks! Thanks for sharing. Edited to add: Here's one marginally cheaper and with slightly cheaper postage , but just in terracotta http://www.webury.com/index.html?lang=en-uk&target=d54.html&lmd=39226.620486 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 It is lovely. It might be cheaper to call in and pick it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenlass Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Thats a really nice website isn't it? thanks for the link., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Oooo - I like that! I don't mind the postage actually as its obviously fragile & could be heavy too. It may be worth seeing how much more you can add to your basket without the P&P going up EDIT - I have just noticed that its £4.95 on all orders under £50, so you could buy a few more things - early Christmas pressies maybe - & not pay any more postage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen & co. Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 There's a shop at Trentham Garden centre that sells the red terracotta ones at £8.50 for the 12 egg ones. I was going to buy one or 2 but the friend I was with was flabbergasted at the price, (she didn't know I wanted one) and I put it back on the shelf I'll have to nip back sometime by myself and get one karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
