only funny to glee fen

Okay, so a few days ago, someone in Glee fandom tracked down a particular scarf that was used on the show that I wanted.

It was from last season at Old Navy, and it was online on mark down for $4.97.

I ordered it, paid twice as much for shipping, and was amused.

Then I realized it was being shipped via FedEx. This is a problem because FedEx can't deliver to our apartment -- we don't have a buzzer.

So I called FedEx to either have it held at a center or delivered to my parents' house instead. They said they could not do this and I'd have to call the Gap for permission. Oh right, Old Navy is owned by the Gap. Lolarious.

Anyway, I call the fucking Gap, they call FedEx while I'm on hold and say it will be delivered to my parents house on Tuesday.

Which is why I was more than a tiny bit boggled when it showed up yesterday, at our house, in our USPS mailbox where it shouldn't have been able to get.

So I am glad that worked, but lolarious scarf is lolarious. Also, HOW did that work?

I'm mildly curious to find out if another scarf arrives at your parent's place, too. But I'm glad you have it!

I am also wondering this. Since the scarf is now entirely unavailable, I'm sure I will be able to find some Glee fan who will be very grateful if I wind up with two.
