New Shipping Rates -- Effective July 10, 2026
We have an important update to share about shipping costs at The Bead Bungalow.
Effective July 10, 2026, postal rates are increasing significantly. These rate changes are beyond our control, but we're committed to being transparent with you about how they affect our business and your orders.
For the past year, we've worked hard to keep our shipping costs down and offer free shipping on orders over $50. However, with these new postal rate increases, maintaining that threshold is no longer sustainable for us. To continue offering competitive prices on our beads and supplies, we need to adjust our free shipping policy.
Here's what's changing:
- The minimum order amount for FREE SHIPPING is now $75 (previously $50)
- Shipping costs for orders under $75 will reflect the new, accurate postal rates
- We're committed to charging only the true cost of shipping—nothing more
We understand that shipping costs matter, and we want you to know that we've made this decision carefully. By charging accurate shipping rates, we can keep our product prices as low as possible and continue serving the bead community with quality materials and great customer service.
If you have any questions about the new shipping rates or our free shipping threshold, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to help.
Thank you for your continued support of The Bead Bungalow!
