Hmm, I have put an order on the shopping cart and the shipping was only around $15.00 or so and my order was over $65. I am in PA, which is only one state away. Last fall I also ordered 4 cases of jars and the shipping was still only $15 something. Maybe it is more expensive the further away you arel. If worse comes to worse, I have a friend that goes to college in findlay and I could just pay him to pick it up for me! Steph
