The inside back cover of the December ABJ has a Brushy Mountain ad Wishing you a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year...

They are offering free shipping East of the Mississippi River for orders placed between December 1st and December 19th.

You must mention the code "SANTA ABJ"

Have a nice Thanksgiving...

Did a search and found this:

"YUP! FREE shipping! From December 1 to December 19 only. Also,.."Unfortunately back ordered items, glass containers, truck shipments, and orders west of the Mississippi River are EXCLUDED'. This from the inner back page of the December 2008 American Bee Journal."

There go my hive boxes! :'( Better call first to be sure of what is actually FREE.

Hive bodies and supers usually ship by normal shipping (unless you are buying 100s or 1000s maybe). Things like extractors, storage tanks, etc. that are too big dimensionally ship by freight.

We have always ordered woodenware from Brushy Mountain on the December free shipping sale, it's a huge savings!

I am thinking it must be $50.00 or more for the components for two hives and all the extras, smoker, tools, etc. Am I close?

Robo · November 26, 2008, 07:11:50 PM

From Brushy 20008 catalog

Complete Standard Hive (1 hive body) $57

Complete Medium Hive (2 medium bodies) $70

edenviewgarden · November 26, 2008, 07:28:44 PM

Sorry, I meant the savings for the shipping of the components, etc. :-P

edenviewgarden · November 26, 2008, 07:51:27 PM

I just checked their website and shipping to me in So. FL is listed at only-

$1.50 for a Complete Standard Hive
$3.50 for a Complete Medium Hive

Of course -I want lots more stuff but that seems incredibly cheap shipping to me. We'll see what the savings is once I tally my list. Any savings is more money to put into supers or other bee stuff.

sc-bee · November 26, 2008, 09:09:29 PM

Or the code "SANTA BC"

That's got to be an error. The cheapest shipping for 45lbs on the chart in the catalog is $19.58. You can't even get the flat rate shipping boxes for $3.50 :?

That was my first thought- way too cheap! :-\ When is anything shipped for $1.50?? So I could rack up $50.00 in free shipping pretty easily. :-D

I just ordered three med size supers from them and the shipping was $12.53.
The last time I ordered a hive the shipping was more than $40.00
Brushy Mountain has a shipping estimator button on their site, just put the items you want in the cart and then hit the estimate button.

woodchopper · November 27, 2008, 02:41:45 PM

We've had some big orders in the past. I couldn't find anyone at the time that could touch $.65 a frame delivered. With prices like that it really makes you want to build up your equipment reserves. :-D

Also on Dec. 1 only order over $50 east of miss is free shipping and use promo code PCCM and get a free sample pack of honey sticks. That is 10 each of 8 flavors in the sample pack. But it is only good for online orders on Monday Dec. 1 and they also have some special sales for Monday only for online orders too.

adgjoan · December 01, 2008, 01:01:07 PM

Where did you find out about the online specials and online sales for today?

Natalie · December 01, 2008, 01:19:41 PM

I recieve their e-newsletter. I am not sure if its because I am a past customer and thats why I recieve it or if you can just go to their site and sign up for a newsletter.
I imagine you could just sign up for e-mails.

Natalie · December 01, 2008, 01:31:33 PM

I meant to say that when I placed my order today I did not need any code for the free shipping, when I tried to put in the SANTA ABJ code it refused it as invalid.
So I put in the PCCM code for the free honey sticks and it accepted that, I continued on with the order to see what would happen with the shipping without the code but it automatically puts in the free shipping, no code is needed.
Happy shopping, I saved alot on shipping today! :)
