Default Custom Notification at Check out based on custom field value

Okay so I have a store where I have perishable goods that require additional shipping/box charges. These charges are only applied on the first item of this type order (ie: if you order 5 different perishable goods you only get charged the one box fee). I'd like an automated way to do this but I have yet to figure out how with the current cart.

I've settled on the fact that I could just have a message pop up at checkout saying that they need to purchase this special shipping etc when they have one of these items. I figured I could just create a custom field with a boolean value 'T' or 'F' that would designate whether that message was displayed or not. Does this make sense?

How do I go about doing this? Any examples anywhere of something similar?

Thanks in advance!
