Oh, I'm a dork! I need some supplies for a cake I'm making next Friday night. I normally order elsewhere and know I get my order in about 3 days. However, I'd like to order from Global Sugar Art this time, but now I'm worried I didn't leave myself enough time for shipping. I see on the FAQs that if I order over the weekend it will ship Mon or Tues. Can anyone offer an estimate (i know there are no guarantees in life...) on when it might arrive in southern Virginia? Anyone in my area have any experience here?
TIA!

Isn't globalsugarart in the east coast? I think you get it faster since you are from virginia.

I ordered from them, and I got it about a week after or even less. I live in Nevada.

Thank you! You're right, they're in NY, so I should get it pretty quickly. Fingers crossed and note to self to get it done early next time!

Virginia is two shipping days from GSA. If you placed your order prior to Monday morning, it will ship on Monday and you will receive it on Wednesday via UPS. If you chose USPS Mail, we cannot guarantee the delivery date. It is always best to call if you want to be sure an order ships out on a particular date.

We have a UPS map posted with delivery times on our site at this link- http://www.globalsugarart.com/?id=23
