Maybe! But oh god, what happens if (I can't let myself get my hopes up) I get that magical letter?

I can just imagine going back over to pick whatever-it-is up. Bringing that back.

"Did you purchase anything today?"
"Yes, a flatscreen TV from the depot."
"You're going to have to pay duty on that. How much was it?"
"Three dollars."
"...step out of the car, please."

I just realized the other day...I'm picking my Bucket of Candycorn in the States and bringing it back over the border into Canada. That means I have to open it in the US. Otherwise I would have a fun conversation with the border guards.

“Where you from?”
“Vancouver.”
“How long were you outside of Canada?”
“Twenty minutes.”
“What’d you pick up?”
“Gas, a six pack of craft beer, and this package from Shell.”
“What’s inside?”
“I don’t know.”
“You don’t know what’s inside your parcel? What’s the total value?”
“Three dollars, sir.”
“…..step out of the car, please.”

now, id love to see you do that in real life without cracking a smile or laughing at them. cuz i laughed out loud reading this. haha. (and tech its worth 8 with the shipping charges) haha thatd be too funny...

and it typically takes 6 days to reach me, unless ice storms take over texas and woot practically shuts down. (that happend on my last baggie)

Just realized the rarity of the occasion: a Bucket o Candycorns & Baby #3 (possibly) delivered in the same week? Excited! Excited!! Two bundles of great joy!

Already devising plans to photo Newbie in Limited Edition woot! headband... :-)

Mine is still not updated from 1 lb even in the Advanced Tracking from My FedEx. Not sure if this is good or bad. Fitting, seeing that it's my first time

5.2 lbs due on 10/25 in Baltimore, MD

5.3 lbs. coming 10/26.

Yay!

No update for me yet. I was able to get the tracking # from reference but no email saying it shipped and no updated info from fedex. Maybe by tomorrow things will have updated and I can finally get weight and dimensions! I HOPE I HOPE

Wootbot just sent me my e-mail stating that my Bucket of Candycorn has shipped
