Shipping calculations count for each item.

I have a site that I use PayPal to write the code for my Add to Cart buttons. I have each button set to use the shipping calculations that I have set up. The problem is that if someone buys 2# of this item and 2# of that item, the shipping calculator (which is set to go from 0.01# - 5# = $8 shipping) charges that $8 for EACH item. I DO NOT have the buttons set to give a shipping number, but rather to use the shipping calculator.
