What are you anxiously waiting to be delivered ???

Disney shampoo? I'm intrigued.
Eh, I’m somewhat obsessed with Disney cruises and trying to get a fix while the world isn’t traveling. I have a robe and a bath mat from the ship rooms in my bathroom. And discovered you can buy the body wash, shampoo etc they use on the cruise and the the Disney parks right from the manufacturer.
 
@NurseDave the H2O toiletries? As another Disney family (both growing up and now my own) we loved the old school black wrapper Mickey soaps in the 90s and then ultimately H2O in the 2000s and beyond at Disney World. I think they moved to large refillable bottles in the hotel rooms now as opposed to the disposable bottles, which although makes sense for both the environment and bean counters, is sad for those of us who loved taking it home!

Ordered a couple of autumn soap samples from Southern Witchcrafts - need to find a new one now that I've gone through all my old SCS Pumpkin.

Exactly. The did they same on the ships.
 
My replated Fatboy from @Techichi made it to Nashville in two days. Then it mysteriously went back to Texas, and it has been "In Transit, Arriving Late" for four days now. Looks like I've been hit by the current USPS issues I've been reading about. The same thing happened with my CC Copper lather bowl. It sat in transit for almost three weeks.

This is the THIRD replate that I've had an issue with. $450 worth of razors that are in limbo right now. I'm going to the PO right now to try and figure out what is going on.

It's even worse than I thought. Everything I sent on a particular day is not scanning at all. And it was a good day. 😣

I had a couple of razors that I sent to Chris at BRG sit in the Chicago suburb distribution center for 4 weeks before finally moving out west. My B&M Sunny Lane order from eBay was scanned once in between New York and my door so never got an update once it was accepted in NY. I'm not sure what is going on with USPS but it seems to be getting worse and worse.

Our local manager told me that a large number of USPS employees are quitting their jobs and that they simply keep up with the volume of packages.
 
Yep, USPS is hurting bad. They have a shortage of staff, a shortage of funds, they're dealing with the same pandemic we're all suffering with, and there is a lot of turmoil over their management / future. I really feel bad for them. [emoji3525]

I've run into the same things... It seems anything in IL or MI just disappear into a void for a week? I think those are their worst affected areas? Maybe...?

Well, what do they say about saleman..... They are a marketers dream.... I have hemmed and hawed about this for over a year being able to justify.. Did my research, talked myself out of it based on cost, but kept reading reviews... I like the natural aspects, and low and behold this became available today.... So in true BarberDave fashion BLIND BUY ROFL. I heard and interesting conversation in my head....

"So I am getting low, you better replentish me soon"

"Hold my Beer"

Dave, dang man! You rich or something??? lol

Great acquisition!!!!

I hope this is why a package I'm waiting on has only shown Pre-Shipment for the tracking info for four days now. I'm not impatient but I get worried when packages don't move, especially before they're even in the shipper's hands.
