    Neither do I. Did the FedEx guy creep in to my target's backyard and leave it at his kitchen doors or something? :astonished:

    My box will be shipped out this afternoon via Fedex Ground.

    167oz will be delivered to my target by the end of the day tomorrow!

    That's a pretty good way to start-off a weekend, right? :wink:

    Definite random place to leave a package lol. Reminds me of a youtube video I watched of a UPS driver leaving a package in someones bushes and claiming it's part of their training lol.

    Reminds me of a Gordon Lightfoot song, "Sundown you better take care If I find you been creepin' round my back stairs"

    i'm packing mine up tomorrow...
    just checking, though...i was going to use a wine box from the LCBO. i wasn't going to put any more padding. i was just going to seal it well so things didn't bounce around. that should be fine, right?

    Excellent Haul! Don't forget to post a picture before drinking any!

    My recommendation for packing beer in a box to ship is... Pretend it's your child, or better yet a container of nitro glycerin. Pack the shit out of it, there is no such thing as too much. Should be able to withstand a 4-5ft drop without incident.

    Let a calm westernly wind carry the package to its new home since the Canada post person asked me if the package has explosives, perfume or alcohol, which I replied no... and laughed!

    Also waiting on a local release before shipping (probably the same thing as phirleh). Hopefully ready to go by early next week.

    If you ship FedEx it should travel tomorrow night and Saturday. So it will go a fair distance.
    Canada Post it won't go anywhere.
