Thread: Shipping Requirements

    Default Shipping Requirements

    I recently purchased a TU float tube from one of our members. Good Deal, Nice Tube, Birthday gift for a good friend.
    However, it was shipped in a "My Size Barbie Doll" box!! It arrived today and most of the town was in getting mail. They know I'm 65, they know I'm single, and by the end of the week the whole town will know I buy Barbie Dolls!!
    From now on guys it's brown paper only, they expect that from old guys!!
    I will save the box for some day I may get even!! It could be you!!

    ------------------
    I feel more like I do now than I did when I got here!

    Well, I could surmise that half the unattached ladies in town over the age of 45 may be putting you at the top of their "elgible dinner date partner" list.

    The other half are probably crossing the street to keep from having to look you in the eye.

    Gotta be a lotta grist for the rumor mill where you live. And I just now wondered to myself, "who is the guy that just happened to have a My Size Barbie Doll box available as a mailing carton in the first place".

    As Alice sez, "curiouser and curiouser"

    LOL, Jack! That was the only box I could find that the tube would fit in. When you said it was a gift for a buddy I thought it was perfect!!

    Guys;
    I can't stop laughing!! This was a hoot!! Somebody is going to get that box back!!
    To top it all off I pulled into the Lodge during a work project and caught a lot of "Remarks" as I presented it to my buddy as his Birthday gift!!

    Yeah they're collectable. How about a divorce Barbie, it comes with all of Ken's things.

    That divorce barbie is also why Huricanes mainly get womens names " They run you ragged, use you up, then spit you out on the side of the road with the clothes on your back,homeless and wondering just what the ---- happened."
