delivery drivers comment

a month ago the citylink delivery driver didnt even know where my house was.. a couple of days ago he commented how im now quite a regular! hehe, same with my postman, if he sees me outside my house as hes delivering he will shout that he has parcels for me in a minute so dont go anywhere yet! ive been really lucky i generally get 2-3 wins a week (although the main prize i wanted seems to have gone walkies, posted next day delivery on 14th..still not arrived :'(.. )

so to everyone who posts, thanks & to my delivery drivers/postman thanks and you better get used to this face & lugging parcels around, i aint slowing down yet!

  • Ha ha the delivery drivers know me very well too...not from comping though from me spending money shhhh don't tell my hubbie yet as he likes the surprise when the credit card bill turns up :)

    Congrats on all your wins and may your lucky streak continue
  • our postman is always grumpy when he has to keep bringing us parcels.... usually grunt and an " parcel again" wheras the yodel man is always cheerful and is usually "im back again" asks how life is and fusses the dogs who love him as usually a parcel for them.
    then gain dont think postie was as grumpy as our neigbour when 25kg box was dropped off. a surprise win and wasnt expecting to wasnt in and he had to carry it round!!

    well done on all your wins. i usully get one a week but also apply for lots of freebies too

    Think the postman has forgotten where I live, and the only time a delivery driver knocks is if a parcel needs taking in for a neighbour! :(

    Jeez... how many do you enter?! I'm lucky if something's delivered (a comp win, not something I've paid for!) twice a year lol.


    Jx
    2024 wins: *must start comping again!*
  • I live in a small village so we know our postie and delivery man. But the deliveries are usually sacks of pet food (won or bought!), and they always comment something along the lines of feeding the zoo :0
    I just enter and forget...hoping to win something! :)
