How much does a mini bottle of booze weigh?

Did you try any of them yet?  They look pretty good.

I used to have office supplies delivered sometimes and wondered why the shipping weight was so much higher than the actual weight of the contents.  

The shipping weight is often different than the actual weight because the courier uses a billable rate formula based on package dimensions.   

The dimensional weight (cubic size x length/height/width, IIRC) more accurately reflects the cost to the courier, from what I was told.

Not yet, they'll be here next week. Thanks for the explanation, that makes perfect sense. I wish they had included that info in their email instead of me worrying they somehow packed someone else's order in with mine. If they had, I wasn't going to send it back anyway though.
