So I ordered a few things about a week ago and I had hoped to get them before my husband had to go back to work (today.) I shipped through USPS and I guess I should have known better. We got a snowstorm over the last few days so I could understand being a bit late but it was in the state three days ago! Anyway does anyone ever have trouble with USPS? Which shipping company do you like to use? Also, the Postal Service in our town are kind of crazy anyway. I don't know if this is normal procedure but they never knock on our door to leave a package but never put it in the same place twice. Once I found a package in the front seat of my unlocked car (needless to say I lock my car now), in the nook of the garage door, or wedged between our mailbox and our neighbors! Its like a scavenger hunt to find our mail! I just don't think this is very safe. Granted we live in a very rural area but anyone could come and pick up a package that is resting on my mailbox! Ok I'm done with my rant and I really hope that my order comes in today
Are you packages ever late?

I use USPS because I usually get it faster than UPS, but I live in a city (suburb). A snowstorm would do a bit of damage to the arrival time. I would say that in the future, if USPS gives you trouble, try UPS.
