The priority mail flat-rate boxes are so great, you can send up to 70 lbs for $12.95, what a deal! Info for ordering them (they're free) is in that tips & tricks page.
One more thing, some items are appropriate for using a space saver bag that you hook up a vacuum cleaner to. Jam & cram! :)

My son used the Purex sheets also. I had sent him the starter kit and he told me the hard cover was hard to store so he got rid of it. I only sent the refills afterwards. Our deployment is almost over! Praise God for that!! I will see my son soon!
