Absolutely! They are great for this.
I also used to own an artistic rubber stamp business and I used these shops to ship orders to customers. If their order didn't weigh the required 18 oz I would put a little baggie with a few river rocks from the dollar store in the package to bring it up to weight. I never said a word to the customer about why I had shipped them rocks and I never once got an email from anyone asking why in the world did I send them some free rocks. The whole thing really cracked me up.
Then there was the time my scheduler emailed and asked me to take a hard to fill shop in the downtown area where parking was a nightmare. When I got to the clerk their scale showed my package to be just a smidge under the 18 oz. There was no way I was going to leave and fix the package to return and fight for a parking spot again. So I made up some excuse about forgetting something and grabbed my package and went over to the counter which was out of sight of the clerks. I rummaged around in my purse and came up with a snack size baggie of craisens. Not a prepackaged snack, just some craisens I had thrown in a baggie as an emergency snack. I debated for a moment and thought oh why the hell not. Opened the box, threw in my baggie of craisens, and got back in line. That customer never emailed to ask why I send her free craisens either.
