If you've bought most anything recently, you are aware of the price increases that everyone is passing on to consumers. One of these is seed vendors' shipping charges. I can't say that they are not justified, but these increases especially hurt retirees (and I suspect there are quite a few here at T'ville). I'm certainly going to be more careful about combining seed varieties and making substitutes. It's also another good reason to cut back how may items I want to grow. And it makes seed swapping an even more attractive proposition.
