Cellar Secret Santa - Page 14

Ordered gift to be sent to Tulsa on 12/9. On 12/13 I got a message that my order had been shipped and delivered. I'm assuming delivered meant 'delivered to post office for shipping'.

I'm concerned about shipping to 'Cellar Dwellar' and not 'Cellar Dwellar or Current Resident'. I hope the post office didn't return it. It's a small US Mail letter or package.

Post when you get it.

As an example of how fast regular US mail is moving right now... my most recent paycheck was mailed on Dec. 7th, and it arrived at my house on the 18th (i.e. 7 business days)--and that was within the same city.

So something mailed on the 13th might in theory get there on the 24th, but since it's going to a different city than the retailer's shipping location, all bets are off. Unless of course it was sent "Priority Mail," that goes faster.

I think I know my SS. I've PM'd just in case - I may be wrong.
But I am sure it is a woman, and a kind and clever one at that.
