Please look - damaged package

Not to talk bad about any of the fine folks that work for the US postal system but we pretty much have to have everything but bills sent to our work addresses now. My fiance was really hurt that she got no birthday cards...turns out that over 10 were sent. Some with checks, some with cash, some with gift cards. The P.O. did absolutely nothing, the investigation went nowhere and nothing has changed at all. It is going be tough to try to put "send gifts and cards to my work address" on tactfully our wedding invitations.

This makes me sick that stuff for the troops(and Fred) would get ripped off. Also that there might not be anything that can be done. I never thought of insuring it.

Yes, especially when it is for a charitable donation. I don't like to jump to conclusions, but you say it was taped up very well and that only leaves one scenario.

How about we turn this into something positive. What was in there?

Maybe between the bunch of us we can replace it all.

This is up to Fred if he wants to pursue it...as far as making a claim.

2lbs of 65% Beads I bought from Cigarnomy. Anonymous donation from: my beads for cigars thread.
3 cigars for Fred:
Oliva V double robusto
Mont #4-cc
Party de Party #1-cc

Well I've got an Oliva V for Fred. I've been meaning to send him a fiver for the troops anyway.

Consider renting a box at The UPS Store or Mail Boxes Etc.
They have commercial addresses and they inform you when you have mail
