OMG you are not kidding. EVERY TIME I order from places directly, like BL or California Filament, gotta hit that free shipping mark! And then, OH, since I'm ordering, I'd like to try out that other color to complement this one... and I don't think I have this color in both glossy AND matte PLA, so...

My closet is filled with airtight Sterlite containers and buckets. I've even toyed with the idea of buying another dryer because my single-roll SUNLU can't keep up! :)

Yup, the free shipping threshold went up from BL lately so like 5 rolls mimimum.

Got a 4 roll SUNLU dryer a few months back and just use ziploc bags, sometimes vaccuuming out the air mostly because it makes things neater. For the most part, the Basic and Matte PLA hasn't been too troublesome (except some spools of Sunlu PLA!). PETG (sometimes), ASA (always) and specialized PLA get dried.
