Despite living just across the bay, it would cost me $10 just in bridge tolls alone, not to mention gas, if I were to pick up at the store. Flat rate's a deal by comparison! :)
Another nice thing about this shipping special is that you can include non-coffee items in the same flat rate box, unlike how they had it before where the flat rate boxes were pretty much just for coffee. That means you could add in some of their nice cups or a tamper and things like that.

That's exactly what I am trying to do, but I can't find the things I want at SM. I'm trying to find tulip shaped capp. cups, a ridgeless triple basket, and a certain pitcher. Cleancaf is the only non-coffee thing I need that SM carries, and I just bought 20lbs of greens in the last month through the co-op. However, I was wanting to pick up some bags, so I'd like to order from SM.
Actually I can't get the things I need from fewer than 3 stores unless I settle and don't get exactly what I want (then I'm down to two)...shipping from three diff. places is killing me! I finally got so tired of searching all the different stores that I just gave up for now.
So what would you guys recommend. I usually order from CCM. I haven't ordered from SM in a few years. I'm looking to try something new. I usually stick to African coffees, but I'm interested in trying the Nicaraguan selections. Anything else I should try?
