Hi everyone!

 

When I was a kid at summer camp, I used to live for care packages from my mom. She'd send me candy and stationery, and something goofy to crack me up. Once she sent me a copy of the Weekly World News.

 

I also once randomly got a hand-addressed envelope with nothing in it but a piece of yarn.

I never received any cool stuff in the mail, myself.  Maybe a few practical jokes, some bills, odd pieces of mail that weren't really addressed for me... but I did used to send out envelopes all the time with just a piece of yarn in them.  I bet people still tell stories about receiving those today!  Smiley Wink

Well, I dunno... the handwriting on this one was actually quite legible... 😉

Handwriting? I usually cut out letters from the newspaper.  I figured it gave the letter that extra "oomph" to get someone to open it.

Hello Everyone, 

 

I have received several things that have been interesting, awesome and plain cool. I love getting packages in the mail from my mother-n-law, she always sends the coolest gifts. I have an obsession with purses and use to buy them like crazy. Well, now I just wait for my Birthday or Christmas to roll around and I know I will get a super cool purse. This looks like one I would buy. Lets just say I have not bought a purse in a long time.

Hi everyone,

 

The most interesting item I have ever received in the mail, huh?  Hmm.  No idea.  To me the most interesting thing would be to receive something I wasn't expecting.  I can't remember receiving anything that I wasn't already expecting for some reason or another.
