    So, how about our post office did something REALLY smart!!
    We have to have a P.O. Box, our town is so tiny, there is no hand delivered mail.
    If you have a package, you have to pick it up during the hours that the post office is open.
    Well, last night, DH ran by the post office because I hadn't gone yesterday.
    He came home with a small box, and an oversized envelope, neither would have fit in our box.
    He said when he opened our box, there was a key inside, with a note that our packages were in another box, one of those oversized boxes, often used by businesses.
    The note said to drop the key in the out of town mail slot after retrieving the packages.
    Can't imagine how many of those larger po boxes go unsold, and could be utilized for those customers who can't get there during normal hours, but we thought that was pretty darn smart.
    Course, not sure if that's in accordance with the rules, the post office is well known for all sorts of rules that just make life more difficult, so I'm not going to repeat it all around (locally), I don't want anyone to get in trouble if it's against the rules, but we were well pleased!!

    Mine's been doing that for a long time they even put in some brown lockers that are bigger than the big boxes :)

    That's great Lori, seems I've heard of that practice:)

    might have been from me :)

    Now now y'all, that's what those light switches are good for;)

    Haunted I like your style!

    :laugh:

    Big storm rolling through here right now :shock:

    Planning to watch the debate tonight, so I might not be around too much.

    I've been thinking about it for a while and I'm kind of hard on them and you get what you pay for with watches,if he can fix it I'll keep using it for work and wear the new one when not working :)

    Texas to Arkansas. So far so good. Hmmm, let's see, what next?
    I fail to see the problem, it went the right direction from Texarkana. It needed to go Northeast and it did.:lol::lol::lol:
