UPS and Online Shopping: A Winter Romance

So, last week, after combing the internet for vacation clothes, I ordered a couple of swimsuits and a pair of shorts from J.Crew. (Hurray!) The confirmation page said that my order would arrive via UPS in 4-7 days (standard shipping). I figured, given the holiday, my new duds wouldn't show up until next year. Well, what do you know! Last night I found a UPS note on my door. My vacation wardrobe has arrived in Chicago already! The note said they would try to deliver it tomorrow at the same time, or I could contact UPS and they could send the package to an alternate address of my choice. Aha! When I got to the office I went to the UPS website and a few clicks later, UPS agreed to bring my package to me at work tomorrow!! Will wonders never cease?! I'm going to search for sarongs next.



Good Luck and Good Shopping!

J.Crew has great warm weather clothes in the "Resort" section of their online store. Old Navy also has some cool swimwear online. HawaiiaLuauParty.com has really cute surfwear and sarongs. Land's End also had swimwear and short options online. Have fun shopping!
