Tosefta Demai
[With respect to] spiced oils (i.e., aromatics made with spices typically subject to tithing), Bet Shammai holds [the mixture] liable and Bet Hillel exempts it (cf. Dem. 1:3). Rabbi Nathan said, "Bet Hillel did not exempt [tithing spiced oils] except as to balsam oil." Others say in the name of Rabbi Natan, "Bet Hillel rendered liable rose oil." [With respect to] replacements for heave offerings, or repayments of the value [of the produce] plus a fifth (i.e., the payment for which someone who consumes Terumah unwittingly is liable, see Ter. 6:1), or the surplus of the omer [offered on the 16th of Nissan], or the two loaves [from the new wheat offered on Shavuot], or the showbreads, or the leftovers of the grain offerings [after the priests have offered the required handful]" (see Bava Kamma 110b:14), Rabbi Shimon ben Yehudah says in the name of Rabbi Shimon, "Bet Shammai rendered liable and Bet Hillel exempted [these agricultural gifts]." And anyone who designates [any of these agricultural gifts] for second tithe, what he has done is done (i.e., there is no punishment but the sages do not approve).

Tosefta Bikkurim
The commandment is to bring [the first fruits] of the seven types (Deut. 8:7-8), and if he only brought one type, he fulfilled his obligation. How so? He brings barley and places it on the bottom, and then something else on top of it; and then the next-to-the bottom is wheat, and then something else on top of that; and next he puts olives on top of them, and then figs on top of all of them, and surrounds them with grape clusters from the outside. They would not ascend [to Jerusalem] alone, but rather town by town (פלכים פלכים). They would not walk the entire day, but rather two thirds of the day. A cantor from the synagogue would go up with them and they would sleep in the streets of the city. They would not enter anyone's house due to [the possibility of contracting] tent-impurity, which requires a burnt offering an a peace offering. They would not occupy themselves [with distractions] during the journey [to Jerusalem] in the way that they would occupy themselves on the return journey.... When they arrived at the Temple Mount, even King [Herod] Agrippa would hoist a basket [of first fruits] on his shoulders and proceeded until he arrived at the Temple Courtyard. When he arrived at the Temple Courtyard, the Levites sang the psalm, "I extol you, O Lord, for You have lifted me up, and not let my enemies rejoice over me" (Ps. 30:1, JPS tr.). The birds that were tied to the baskets were offered as burnt-offerings, and whatever was in their hands they gave to the Priests.
