UPS? FEDEX? USPS, is that you?

I love to shop online for a majority of the Christmas shopping but now the worst part has come. Worrying and hoping that the packages guaranteed to arrive by Christmas will actually arrive!
Still waiting for about 4-5 things!

this week and all have arrived within 3 days.

We are waiting, too.

There are 5 packages we are hoping to get tomorrow before we leave for Orlando

ARGH!! I was home ALL day and I found a yellow sticky note from the USPS saying I missed a package!? Excuse me!? I think the mailman just didn't ring the bell. This is definitely not the first time this has happened. I don't get it, just because I live in an apt building why is it ok to not ring the bell?
Oh well, guess I will have to pick it up on Saturday.

UPS all the way! I just got a 2nd day air delivery today. Ground prob takes a little longer since they are really busy. Plus my dh is a UPS driver. He has not been getting home til 8:30 pm for the past couple of weeks.

Hrrrrumph!!!!! SO just asked me today if I would be really unhappy if one of my presents doesn't arrive before we leave for FL.....

Mish19- I hate that! Mine likes to knock and run it seems.

I'm still waiting for about 3 things to arrive. I hope they get here by Saturday am, we're leaving for Houston....I'd hate for them to sit on our front porch for 2 weeks

Mish19,
that has happened to me several times with USPS. I will be home all day, yet there is a sticky saying I missed my package. I swear aour mailman doesn't ring the bell. It's so frustrating!!!!!!

The last week of package deliveries have been trying, but I'm down to just one left now. According to the tracking, its due to arrive today. I did have some problems with a driver delivering to my neighbor's house instead of mine. That made me angry, since that particular package contained a rather expensive piece of crystal. The guy didn't even ring her bell, he just dropped it on the porch and left. She didn't even know it was there until one of her kids found it and started shaking it and trying to guess what it was. Luckily it was packed very well.

Oh Mish I feel your pain!! I too live in an apt and UPS and USPS either leave stickies on the door and don't knock or if they're feeling real lazy (normally) they leave the package in the office of the apt and DON'T leave notes of any kind!! The only way you know if you have a package is to go down there every day and check. SO FRUSTRATING!!!!!
