UPDATED: I Ordered My Personalized M&Ms Today w/ TIPS

Here's my TIPS if you plan on doing the same:

1. Order during the fall/winter months, otherwise they charge you BIG BUCKS for quick shipping (it was $54 when I went to do it over the summer....NOT) due to the outdoor temperature (melted m&m's could be a problem LOL).
2. Go to the 'Business' section. It allows you to buy in BULK - cheaper, & no you don't have to be a business.
3. If you ever see any promotional codes (m&m's said you would have to 'follow the link' for a bulk order. You just can't 'enter a promo code' for bulk....for FREE shipping or a percentage off DO It! Most promo codes are NOT valid on a bulk orders.

So, I ordered a 5 lb box of Black, Burgundy & Silver M&M's (about 2500 pieces) The Black & Burgundy are 'non-printable' colors, so my Silver M&Ms will say in script 'My Love, My Dream' one one side & 'MioAmore, MioSogno' on the other.

For 5 lbs message only (logo's are more), 3 colors, w/S&H $153. I didn't have a promo link (& I've been looking for 2 months...I gave up looking) that would appply to a bulk order...I've seen many promo's, & tried many (none worked)....SO, that is regular price.

Since my wedding is August would it be too early to order in March? When I spoke with a rep from the company she explain that I would have to store the m&m's in a cool area in the house. Not the refrigerator

Updated portion :

UPDATED they refunded me $43.33 because not all the silver m&ms were printed on! YEAH! It was worth inquiring! (they did give other options, but I didn't need more M&Ms .....I took the $$)

Definitely DON'T store chocolate in the fridge - they will turn white.
