Receiving presents for partner in the post without them knowing

longwalks1

My partners been through a rough 6 months with her elderly mother and I'd like to order her a few gifts as a surprise without her knowing.  The only issue is she works from home so is usually her who takes any parcels/post/deliveries in.  We don't really know our neighbours enough to ask them, and I'm quite a lone worker in the workplace.  How else can i receive presents through the post without them being delivered to our house?

Amazon delivery to a locker or counter (usually in convenience stores)

Many sellers offer some form of collection from your choice of shop/post office.

Any family or friends local enough to go and pick them up from there?
Several companies will deliver to supermarket stores for collection- John Lewis for example to waitrose, habitat/argos to sainsburys. Probably others. 

What is the workplace like? If there is a reception and you asked nicely/bought the nice biscuits would they take it in for you?

Depending on what you are buying you have a few options, collect in store, deliver to a family/friends house. Amazon lockers are useful too as someone pointed out in this thread.
