My husband is an incessant orderer and EVERYBODY delivers to our door. We don’t suffer “porch pirates” – I think they are intimidated by the sheer numbers of packages. If I get a package, it’s iffy that I’ll get it right off if I don’t get to the packages first. The mailman says “sorry, they’re all his” if I get to the door while he’s putting them on the porch.
I just found out a Christmas gift for my son came in a box with no identification and he opened it. I marked it as a gift which was suppose to include a personalized note. That was Amazon. Guess it’s the time of year for delivery screw ups.

Just tell them whose name is on the box, smile and quickly depart.

I’m surprised the guy’s still there? Most of the time the pkg is left & Poof….the truck’s gone.

Some of our gifts are totally unidentifiable from the packaging so we just wrapped em as is. Come Christmas morn. Surprise!

We’ve got a system. She doesn’t look at packages addressed to me, I don’t look at packages addressed to her.
