Over the last couple of weeks I've been placing orders for all kinds of "Gun Goodies".
Powder, reloading tools, Scope Caps, and a few other items, all coming from different suppliers.
Also ordered some household items to be shipped to the house because I'm too lazy to drive around and pick them up locally.
I started getting shipping notices last week and it seems that even though the items were ordered over a week long period of time they are ALL arriving today. I expect delivery people from Fedex, UPS, USPS, and who knows who else that does local deliveries all day today. This hasn't happened to me since before I retired and then it was just "company stuff".
Funny how today ended up as a convergence for all the deliveries.
Ever happen to any of you?

I recently had three orders (not packages...fit in a normal envelope) in three consecutive calendar days (from the same place). Two of the three arrived on the same day. Since it is all gun related, the ATF wanted to get a shot off all the stuff together at once on your porch

Eh, sometimes it just works out that everything arrives on the same day. For instance, Britta (my former sister-in-law who now lives in New Zealand with her husband) and Sonja (also a former sister-in-law, currently living in the UK with her husband) and one or two of my Indian relatives by my former marriage will all ship something to myself or the boys within 2-3 days of each other, and it is not uncommon (think at least four times, maybe more) for all the parcels to arrive on the same day.
You would think that the differences in places of origin would make a difference, and sometimes it does, but sometimes it just happens to work out that everything appears at the same time (and no, none of the parcels have ever been opened by Customs, so that's not a factor). I wouldn't agonise too much over it.
