    @cascademom: That was priority at USPS. I spent like a half hour in there trying to come up with a solution.

    I was trying to send something from amazon yesterday and it wont even let me do that. I think I am going to have to email a present- and that just isn't fun at all!! Getting mail is the best part!

    @cheert16: If it's under 4 lbs you can ship USPS first class and it's cheaper. I just sent something international around 1.5 lbs and it was $25.

    @cheert16: oh and what about Amazon Uk? Can you order something from there and have it shipped directly? I've never done that before so I have no clue if that's even an option, but you could try!

    I am going to be out of town on Black Friday so I probably won't open mine until we get home. But I can't wait!!

    @tlcbaby: I am going to open mine on Thanksgiving morning before we leave town, along with LO, so I can be a part of the post on the 29th. I haven't gotten it yet, so hopefully it gets here for that plan.

    @Smurfette: Good plan! We are leaving on Wednesday morning, I don't want to do it so early before everyone else. I feel like I am peeking or something!

    I'm a total slacker, but I sent mine yesterday via Amazon Prime. My gifted should be getting it today.

    I sent it from my neighbors account, so she's going to be confused. Haha.

    @Arden: awe man, I didn't want to say anything on case it came yesterday...but it was me! I swear I sent it (in all honesty I sent it out on Monday) but it should have been there by now! I hope it gets there tomorrow! I'm sorry.

    @hellocupcake: It's okay! It might arrive tomorrow and even if it doesn't that's fine. I'm just glad to know you sent it recently and that it wasn't like sent weeks ago and gotten lost because how sad would that be... anyway, YAY! It's coming!

    Also, I sent mine late too. Not until Saturday. So I get it.
