Good idea. Usually I see the delivery truck pull up, outside my office window, but I was in the bedroom when it was delivered this time. I can't wait to see who shows up wearing my top, since it will fit most of my neighbors No tiny ladies on my side of the building Bath & Body Works has 40% off today and tomorrow. I have two rewards (free item each) so I think I'll order the matching lotion to the shower gel I ordered last week. /PSA

I have been out attacking the weeds in the front. The backyard is under control finally. My new fence is going in on 4/15 so I need to get them a path to see there they are going down the property line. Desire My RoundUp sprayer blocked again and I couldn't get it to going so I put on the one that they sent me. My old one is blue and this one is black and it sprays so much better. Much wider spraying range than the blue one.Now I have to wait and see what areas I missed before I spray again but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Kritter, I just went out to the garage to look at my RoundUp containers. Two are in the gray extended 365 formula containers with black spray heads and the blue/white regular bottle has the blue sprayer. My other blue sprayer was the one that blew out on me. So the black ones must be the better sprayers.

The black one has a much broader spray coming out. Can cover more area with a spray. I am about 80% done with spraying other than isolated pop up weeds going forward. I have gone thru almost 6 of the gallon containers of spray

If you open a free account with UPS and with Fed Ex, you can go in and set up delivery preferences on your account if you haven't done that already. You get to give specific instructions where you want your package placed, to ring the bell, knock, or whatever. If they don't do it, you can call FedEx and make a complaint and the driver gets special notices to comply on your deliveries. I had a big problem with FedEx leaving heavy boxes in front of our garage doors instead of bringing them up to the porch door where I can flip them right inside. I put instructions on my shipping labels when I ordered, but not in the delivery company system until I spoke with FedEx. Too bad there is nothing for USPS deliveries like this.

I have a UPS account, but I don't see any option to ask the driver to knock. However, both UPS and FedEx are pretty good about knocking. Temu uses UniUni in San Antonio, and there isn't any way to set something up like that. I did email UniUni and asked them to have drivers knock. I really don't know why they don't, unless they get lots of complaints about knocking making the dogs bark (a UPS driver told me that awhile back). Which is kind of stupid - dogs bark at everything, and why should dog owners set the rules for all deliveries anyway?

That is interesting because I get Temu from the USPS. Or is it UniUni scanning for USPS? The tracking showed it was at a USPS post office out for delivery.

UniUni is a Canadian business that expanded to key markets in the US, including Austin and San Antonio. I'm not sure where else in TX they are, although given the items clear customs at DFW, they're probably in Dallas and Houston too. They do the actual delivery - no handling for USPS or UPS. I'd never heard of them so I looked them up I did get some smaller packages via USPS, but the larger packages have been delivered by UniUni.

I have never had that tracking like you show. Mine has always had the UPS and then the USPS Sure Post handoff tracking so my packages may not be big/heavy enough to switch from USP/USPS.
