Now I am going to give a gift suggestion. I thought about starting a thread for this--LOL--but I'll just squeeze it in here.
For $9.99 I bought myself a mail alert gadget at Radio Shack. It is SO COOL!!! It beeps and flashes when the mailman opens my mailbox. I have terrible mail service and I never know when it's going to arrive. Add to that a very steep driveway and it is irritating to have to check for mail more than once. This is a cool gift idea. It lists for $29.99 and is on sale for $9.99. (Maybe it didn't sell well, but it works great.)
I hope someone out there appreciates this little tip, LOL!
