FWIW -
I posted two photos/jpegs of a tea assortment... relating to a Bigelow tea assortment. It never made it to the NG. Anyone else experienced this? Intended for those that consume Bigelow teas... some consumer information from purchases made within the last fornight. What the photos showed was what the assortment looked like, and how there were five bags in a small sealed bag, instead of individually sealed bags. It's a rather unique packaging. Never seen it before. Don't like it much for one person making a cup. Might be alright for several folks. Oh, and the low weight bags, too... as low as 1.2 grams - showed an example. Other Bigelow assortments have individually sealed bags, and the average weight is 2 grams. I have one of these, too... much better. No photos of this, since it's more of what you would expect.... |

Most groups don't allow the posting of binaries, and I suspect this is

If you don't mind a suggestion, if you want to share photos with folks without having to post the actual file to the NG, you might want to try a free service like Photobucket.com or something. That way you can upload the photos to your account with them and provide links to the photos for the folks you want to share with. Jennifer |

I have one of these, too... much better. No photos > of this, since it's more of what you would expect.... Binaries in a text-only group is a no-no. BTW, if you want to continue to claim that Bigelow is shrinking their tea bags, it's best that you compare specific Bigelow product(s) "then" and "now." -- ~~Bluesea~~ Spam is great in musubi but not in email. Please take out the trash before sending a direct reply. |
