I buy manila coin envelopes from Staples office supply store and I know they do on-line orders. I'm fortunate that we have one a couple miles from our home. The envelopes come in different sizes...the smallest, which are about half the size of actual seed envelopes, work great for most seeds and for sharing seed with others. They sell them in boxes of about 250 if I remember correctly. Mine also were not self adhesive. As far as labels...I print my own labels off the computer to put on the back side of the envelopes which helps to keep them closed should you get a batch with inadequate glue and adds a nice cosmetic touch to the finished product. I'm sure there are a lot of other sources out there. I recommend doing a web search (Google or other). Hope this hhelps and good luck!

I had a good experience with the Menards employee I dealt with. I would call ahead when I was going to be in to review the cabinet design so I could work with him. You do have to know what is needed and be sure to order the right parts so your project is not held up. He was willing to call the Menards/medallion rep and have them look over our design before we placed the order. Menards is fairly new to our area and the Kitchen staff where not very experienced when we ordered 2 years ago. I am guessing they have gotten better now. We had a issue with one of the cabinets and they ordered a replacement one right away. We had our kitchen cabinets delivered but the basement bar that we just completed we picked up in our truck. We are fairly experienced DIY. The backsplash is a 6 x 6 honed and filled travertine set on a brick pattern.

I've had my Hayward system (Northstar pumps, Filter, Heater, Aqualogic, SWG) going on 5 years now without any problems. Given the repeated problems that you experienced with circuit boards, is it possible the electrical service may be of poor quality? Unstable line voltage and/or surge current can cause all sorts of problems for unprotected electronics. Something you might want to have checked out.

Because this page showed up on a google search, I thought I'd post the answer I found: From Wikipedia: "The Facing Identification Mark, or FIM, is a bar code designed by the United States Postal Service to assist in the automated processing of mail. The FIM is a set of vertical bars printed on the envelope or postcard near the upper edge, just to the left of the postage area (the area where the postage stamp or its equivalent is placed). The FIM is intended for use primarily on preprinted envelopes and postcards and is applied by the company printing the envelopes or postcards, not by the USPS."
