Work At Home Musings

After Christmas, I pulled apart all the shipping boxes that arrived at my house. I did a lot of buying online so I had a lot of boxes. Of course, now I need new boxes to ship out a few items for birthdays, etc. Sometimes I use USPS Priority Mail, but other times I ship UPS and need my own boxes.

I found a new site that actually lets you order your own custom boxes. If you are a home business owner or eBayer and ship out similar products frequently, this might be a good option for you. Buying the right size boxes to fit your products will cut down on excess shipping costs as well. Pack N Box Now also have stock boxes and packing supplies.

Not to beat a dead horse, but I have been taking part in the Thirty Day Challenge and it is very valuable. We are just in pre-season lessons and there is plenty of time to catch up! Lessons so far have included:

• Flock - a new social web browser
• Flock Add Ons - some really cool stuff here
• Google Reader - reading your items much quicker!
• Tweet and Twirhl
• StumbleUpon

There are videos to watch and a forum as well. The Thirty Day Challenge is all about finding out how to promote your product or service and make money from doing it. BEST PART - all free. Yup! I haven’t gotten one bit of spam mail and no offers to buy something! It is worth a visit if you have a product that you sell online!
