You know you buy too much stuff off the internet when....

....you buy some stuff from Newegg and they forget to put a shipping address on it, but the Fedex driver knows where to deliver the packages because of the name on the package and where it's coming from 😱

I just got 2 boxes from Newegg that have my name, along with my city, state, and zip. No street address at all. The Fedex guy just said "There's no street address, but I'm here enough to know these are your packages" 😱

Actually not that many I'm sure compared to other people.

Over the past two weeks probably 5 or so.

Come to think of it, he was giving me a weird look.... :Q

You order 6 256 CF cards from Dell today for a total of ~$240 - $125 in rebates = $115

You should have seen the poor female Fed Ex driver lug my F150's tonneau cover/toolbox to my doorstep...

(If I'd have known she was delivering it, I would have helped🙁)

lol, ya'll funny. No, I offered him a COKE, not a C**K!

But really, since stuff would come in daily and I was the last delivery on the truck he'd shoot the breeze now and again.
 
I've severely cut down on my ordering the last 2yrs. Still, I'm often surprised to get a knock at the door for a package and have to think 'wtf did I order?'.

50% of the time (when that happens) it's something I've forgotten about! (The rest of the time it's something a family member may have shipped).

Oh, a package, for me? 😀

This coming from RossMAN? 😕😉


Over here in the UK, all we have to do is put the post code, and a house number, and they know exactly where to deliver it to. Am tempted to do that next time, rather than tell them the exact address! 😉

same here. The staples guy, ups, fedex guy knows my name. And i move around a lot. Well, i moved 6 times in the last semester, same town though
 
My UPS guy drops anything that has to be signed for off where I work.... not only does he know the address, but he also knows that I have 3 big dogs that don't like the door being opened by strangers, and, he knows where I work and to drop things off there instead 🙂
 
I have had that happen alot...I order thousands of dollars of computer equipment for the company I work for,..

Umm.....lol. I'm just glad everyone else responded to this one cause there were just too many things to say. 😀
 
I can EASILY top that:
I used to go to my local computer store so often, that when I wasn't there for a month, they called me at work to make sure I was okay.
