Mysterious Package sent to me

[slide to the left]

When I got home from work yesterday, I set into my usual routine. I put down my purse and looked at the mail that my husband brought in. I saw a box on the table and went to pick it up. I was from fed ex and was delivered to the door. Well, it was addressed to me with a note on the box. The note said, "A gift for you and your baby."

Do they know something that I don't? Am I pg? It was a full size thing of formula! WTF?

1. What was the return address?

2. Advertisement maybe?

Like a free sample or something.

Or just a friend of yours pulling a prank?

3. I'd bet someone gave your address at Motherhood or another maternity store

Probably because they didn't want the stuff for themselves- you can't buy without giving them an address, which they sell to formula companies. I'd drop it off at a shelter or food locker, or list it on CL and have somebody come get it. Once you get on one list you get on all of them, so you'll probably have a shitload of diaper and baby food coupons in your mailbox for the next year or two- hopefully you know somebody who can use them.

BTW, sending an unsolicited forumla sample is a violation of the WHO code. I don't know who to report that to, though. I don't think anything gets done about it anyhow.
