I got a PO box!

i have always wanted a PO box. they seem so neat!

I don't see the value in it.
But right on for you

only problem is when you get packages - and you have to go to the counter to pick them up/sign - and you can't get to post office during business hours (8-4)- so you have wait for weekends - and UPS doesnt deliver to them

I'll probably be getting one of those soon, too.

yes, i have found mine to be invaluable.

I think they are total lamesauce, but that's my humble opinion.

Now creepy members can mail you pictures of their penises!

I'm kidding. Honest.

I would be remiss if I didn't point out that Clara has a small box.

and she's looking forward to having it stuffed.

ive been thinking about getting one. itd just make me feel cool. but i dont get enough mail.

with big packages.

I think it's a great idea.

it's the only way to go,, but you'll soon find out that paying every six minths gets old real fast,,,, go for the yearly payment.

You left one problem out... most times when you get the smallest PO Box, magazine covers always seem to get ripped and they really don't take extra care that your items aren't bent/whatever...

I know this because I have a key to check my friend's PO Box and her mail always is messed up.

I've been all the day with my box up for years. In fact, I'm doin' it right now!

i had a friend in highschool who had a P.O. box just so he could get porn without his folks finding out. He was real enthusiastic about sex. every highschool party we were at he'd inevitably sneak some porn into the vcr. It was Awesome! Dude was a little weird though and he was always telling us about these new ways of masturbating he'd invented. One day another of my friends announced this poor masturbating genius' most recent invention story a group of ladies and embarrassed the hell out of the guy. He didn't hang out much after that, but for a while, he'd been the smartest guy I knew.

i've heard ladies on SG reference being stalked relatively often.... is this a real concern?

I once did the math and discovered that I get 4 pieces of junk mail to real mail and 11 pieces of mail addressed to someone else than to me. Maybe a P.O. could remedy this. Kind of like e-mail. My house box could be my junk mail and my P.O. could be my inbox.

I love my PO box!

Where I live you have to have a PO box if you want to get mail. Here in the sticks we don't have fancy home delivery. We have DSL and cable and county transit, but no home mail delivery...

Damn double post
