    Yes, that is the box from me that contains the 512 Peach Sour.

    For Fedex tracking, yes, it can show you inbound packages too. I thought you had to specifically sign up for this but based on your post it sounds like it is now going to be the norm? And yes, it can definitely ruin surprises.

    Yea I didnt signup for anything like that or do anything it just popped up. I no tech guy but thats so odd how it links to your account. How does Fedex know that it is me? How bout if there is another person with the same name out there? I guess it could link to the address and such but still kinda creepy. I guess ill have to show control and not look at my fedex app unless needed.

    That is odd, with both Fedex and UPS you typically have to sign up for it (UPS calls it MyChoice, Fedex calls it My Fedex) - and they verify your address using information only you know.

    It links purely off of address, as packages sent to William and Bill or my wife all get picked up.

    makes it hard for people to stealth things but also an essential tool in Minnesota winter when somebody doesn't check the weather before they send.

    :slight_smile: I'm trying to get on the "Notable Member" list, and adding events is one of the easier things I have left to get points.

    I need 20 points to tie the lowest number on that list, and just submitted my 5th event for 10 of them. Need 5 more for another 10, and 15 more than that to move past the bottom person on the list. I can also rate 12 more places, or add 9 more places, each for 10 points, but both of those are a bit tougher.

    I could also be patient and wait until I reach 1000 posts (another 162, or the second they start counting BIF forum posts), but seems lazy :wink:

    I dread the day they start counting BIF posts. I love my posts to likes ratio. Makes it seem like I always have something interesting to say.

    So this is what happens when you set up a trade with a Locals member and you each agree to 1 bottle...
