Lady said it will take 4-7 business day, so expect them by the end of next week smile.gif

I didn't have any paper at my house to print on, so I wrote you name on a little paper, but she made me buy a huge card that says "have a great day" and put your name and address there.

So the box is coming to you with cute flowers on it.

Since we're talking about shipping, I'll throw in my $.02 ...
Whenever I ship something, I always use bubble wrap or peanuts.
On the outside, i duck tape all the corners of the box and packaging tape around it once or twice, then stick some labels on. Usually don't worry about the outside much.
Shipping companies? Hell yes USPS overcharges, IMO UPS is the best. I've never shipped with FedEx though, so I can't give my opinion on them.
Since when does USPS give you free boxes? I couldn't even get a 4 inch piece of packaging tape, much less a whole freaking box. I went there once and there was a small tear in the box I was shipping, I asked the guy for some packaging tape, he hands me a roll of scotch tape and says "This is all I can give ya," and walks away. Prick. So I had to drive home, re-tape it, and come back.
The only reason I now ship with USPS is because I am forced to since I live in a city with < 5,000 population, and the only store that used to ship UPS just went out of business.
I think a shipping company that won't insure a package at ALL unless you pay the extra dollars is advertising right there how "good" of a shipping company they are (I'm talking about USPS here). UPS insures everything up to $100 FREE. FedEx, from what I've read, everything is free (?).

Dude, USPS is cheap. I don't understand how anyone says they overcharge.

You get all the free boxes you want, delivered, www.usps.com . Go there and order them. I've got boxes of boxes.

Free labels, free stickers. Hell, I tear up the boxes and use it for packing material sometimes.

UPS has the worst service I've ever seen, almost tied with DHL. Fedex rules, but too expensive compared to USPS.
