I'm an Okie, and unfortunately almost everything I order is not close by. You will probably find once you start doing this more, your favorites will be at different suppliers. Start out with samples and then when you find what you like, buy in bulk to save on shipping. I order alot from BCN, Peaks, Just Scent, and the Candle Source. You will probably just have to accept the fact that shipping is going to kill you. Good luck!
