Hello

My Fiance isn't here yet we are still in the K-1 visa process but we will be living in about 2 hours west off I70 in Illinois.

In regards to the balikbayan boxes.

Are those the boxes that make it easy to ship items to and from the Phillipines?

Could someone explain more what the contents can or can not be; also cost...Please.

Hi Evli1966,

Lots of Pinay near you down there. My wife & I visit Mattoon friends several times each year for birthdays, etc.

Balikbayan boxes can contain just about anything legal to ship to Phils. They are not charged by weight, they are charged by size. The ones we ship are 28 x 18 x 18 I think. They can be as heavy as you want as long as 2 normal people can lift the box. It usually costs between 80-115 $ depending on destination in Phils. They take about 6 weeks to get there, again depending on destination.

hypocrit - a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

Pet Peeve for 2011 - supercilious, contemptuous, arrogant, attitudes.
