The main thing isknow is they are tyvex made of tyvex.. Most expensibe way MMFD. Another route  a whole big ass rolll (they won't cut it) for $114 enought to do a house. Next thing tyvex envelopes from target, don't know the price but was recently reccomended by Micron magic as an alternative  to picking up some at the local post office for free.. They're in the front room of most post  offices in a rack and they say
nothing if you get ten of em and ask em when they close on the way out the door. Test have proven that they work just as well. Hope that helps, Please excuse my typos I haven't drank in twelve years but tonight's my late bro's birthday and what were we talking about? Oh yeah there's blue with a big eagles head on em and they're about the size on a peice of typing paper and feel kinda plastic
Hope that helps!:peace:

Some people have decided that the best way to get Tyvek is to STEAL envelopes from the Post Office. Some of their specialty envelopes are made of this material. If you are a thief, then this is the way to go. If you are not a thief, then visit a construction site, Tyvek (or its equivalent) is used there extensivley. Rumage through the refuse pile or ask the workers if you can have the scraps.

Look, An ex-friend snunk into my brother's shop and stole about 2grand in tools that he knew my dad had left me when he passed away. THAT"S A FUCKIN THEIF! Someone eased into my backyard and and took my winch of my 4WD. THAT'S A FUCKIN THEIF! About 5 years ago some kid came into my front yard and made off with my son's Honda XR80R. THAT'S A FUCKIN THEIF.
Every time I mail a letter that I think may be a little heavy(because it's got foil in it), I put on an extra stamp. When sending spores to the FSRE it cost 80 cents. I put 3 x 34 cent stamps on it. Over time I'm absolutely sure that I've paid enough extra to the USPS to pretty much cover the costs of a god damn envelope that's free to start with.
I spent the better part of a saturday trying to get different builder supply stores to cut a peice from a roll of house wrap.($114) The nearest Target is 102 miles away. (I forgot about polyfill) And yes at the last moment, I misused a free envelope. I don't feel like that make me a theif and I'm pretty sure I've given enough stuff away around the shroomery to prove that I don't have to steal a god damn thing.
(any replies to back this up would be welcomed)

Ask the workers if u can have the scraps, well why dont u goto the post office and ask the workers there if u can have a envelope and most likely they'll let u HAVE (for free) as many as u want. AND i'd prefer if u dint call people thiefs this isn't theivery, this is saving money and its smart! Wakinguplate is actually a good friend of mine and he is no thief, if anything he gives more then he takes! Stop hating on other peoples ideas, be happy for them cause they where able to come up with a good idea!

I agree, WakingUpLate and I are also friends and he is about the furthest person i know from being a crook that i know. by ASKING for something, that sort of eliminates the STEALING part, u know? this type of name-calling and mud-slinging has really put some of us in the community off, and makes not want to post to answer questions because we don't feel like getting the abuse that is sure to be dispensed by those who insist on flaming and being hurtful. the hate stops here, we are a COMMUNITY, not a dissenting mass!
please think about using loaded words before using them in a post, we need to be kind to one another and help each other, or the spirit of this place is lost.

If someone takes something that does not belong to them, and has not been paid for, that is stealing. Thieves steal. You can justify this anyway you want. It's still stealing.

If you ask for them, they may give them to you. They will give them to you with the assumption that you will be mailing them and paying for the postage to do so. Therefore paying for them in the process. This is all figured into the price of the postage. Try telling them what you want them for and if they still give them to you then thay are in the wrong as well.

Saving money by stealing is not smart.

There is no difference between someone who steals from the Post Office or the person who breaks into a garage and steals tools. I'm sure the person who stole the tools had some justification all worked out in his mind for doing it. Does that make it right?

People should stop trying to justify doing things that are just plain wrong.

To head replies off at the pass, have I ever done anything wrong? Yes I have. When younger I was able to justify to myself many things that in hindsight I shouldn't have done. I don't try to make excuses though. Wrong is wrong.

Giving more than you take doesn't make it right either. If I steal $100 from you and give away $60 would that make you feel better? If I give you many things and then later come and steal from you, do you then say "Well he gave me lots of stuff so who cares if he stole stuff from me?"

I don't hate peoples ideas and when someone has a good one I enjoy reading them and sometimes trying them Since when is stealing a good idea?

I do hate thieves though. Don't you?

I can think of plenty of examples that are considered acceptable that by this reasoning of yours that would suddenly been outlawed! the post office steals from the American people by questionable book-keeping--inflating their profits and its top dogs all gave themselves huge payraises for what they termed "a job well done" while a vast number of complaints at high levels (by corporations not citizens) sat around unprocessed. if you think that them giving you an envelope is stealing, look at what this government agency is doing to all of us. not taking the envelops isn't going to keep the price of stamps down for all of us, either, so don't blame all of us that DO get envelopes when your stamps cost 3 cents more!
did you know that the PO is supposed to charge you for using tape? have you ever been charged for taping a box? taking "free tape" is also stealing.........
i guess there's probably many of us that are dirt poor, and we can't afford to have this hobby at all costs, and people like you would root us out of the hobby altogether for that
very reason.
"There is no difference between someone who steals from the Post Office or the person who breaks into a garage and steals tools. I'm sure the person who stole the tools had some justification all worked out in his mind for doing it. Does that make it right? "--i would also like to remind you that there is also no difference with the person who raises illegal crops, and that in all of these examples the perpetrator goes to jail.
i have been stolen from, i have been raped too. but do you consider these to be reasons by which i justify all my actions? give me a break!

asking for envelopes in the post office is not stealing. Thats like if i ask u for a candy bar and u give it to me . .is that stealing? NO

it doesnt matter what my intent with the candy bar is but the fact that i didnt take it without ur permission doesnt mean i stole it. Stealing would be if u put that candy bar down and then when u turned ur head i grabbed it and ran away. Thats stealing.

Ur making a big deal out of nothing . .its envelopes from the post office . .get off it!

Is that the best you can do?

I never said the Postal Service was a fine orginization. Nor did I say they are run by a fine bunch of people. On the contrary, I think they are a bunch of asses, who need a batch of fresh blood, because they certainly aren't the best people for the job. For the reasons you mentioned and more.

My boxes are taped before I reach the post office, so that is a sad example.

I could not care less about your financial situation and have no wish to "root" anyone out of this hobby.

As for my illegal hobby, no one is affected by it but me. That's the difference. I choose to do what I do and as a result I am the only one who will suffer the consequences should I ever be caught. I have not taken something that doesn't belong to me.

Other than to say I'm sorry to hear what happened to you and to say I hope the scumbag was caught and punished, I won't even bother to respond to your last sentance since it is one of the more foolish parts of your post.

Stop making excuses for those who do wrong.
Wrong is, and will remain, wrong.
Stealing is wrong.
Those who try to justify stealing are wrong.

The candy bar is mine to give, the clerk who would knowingly give you an envelope for a purpose other than mailing a package is giving away something that does not belong to him or her.

And your right, if you DID NOT take it WITHOUT my permission, you didn't steal it.

Using your example, lets say you and I are in a store. You ask me for a candy bar and I hand you one off the shelf. Is it now yours to take without paying for it? I think not.

Will taking a envelope from the Post Office make or break them? No. It's still wrong however.

Stealing is a big deal.
It doesn't matter if it's from the Post Office or from you.
It's still wrong.
What's really sad is seeing you people try to justify it.

If anyone wants to steal, that is their choice, but see it for what it is.

Thieves suck, pure and simple.

Well, I just had a great idea. I called my local postmaster(she's a friend of mine) and asked her if I could give some of those envelopes to cut em up for a science project. She said she'd send some out with the carrier monday. I told her a guy said that was stealing and she said it was impossible to steal something that is free. She also said you were probably the kind of kid to say "Teacher, Teacher, You forgot to give us homework!" and then twenty years later get busted for embesslement or tax evasion. By the way, if you ever get real broke and decide to sell a few of your shrooms, don't forget to file that income with your tax return or else you'll be stealing from all of us.
She was also wondering why we were sitting around arguing about stealing while everyone else was in church. I told her that under your name it said two inch dick and she said "Well, That explains it"
If you can't see the difference between someone sneaking at night and stealing something of value, and someone misusing a freebie. The you're just fucking stupid.
By the way, Kiss my ass. Opie

I never said he wasn't a good guy. I don't know him or if he would be a good friend.

My point is, and remains, taking something you don't own and haven't paid for is not the right thing to do.

If you all would take the time to look at my first response you will notice I never named anyone and also that at that point he hadn't said he had used an envelope.

Do I think all of my friends are as pure as the driven snow?
Of course not. I would never abandon a friend merely because of an envelope. I would however say to him the same things I've said here.

Including.... "Thieves suck."
