My son told me they make excellent bridges for his Hot Wheel and Matchbox cars.

I received my scale today in the mail -- pretty nifty device if I do say so myself.

Mine arrived two days ago.

Was almost giving it up, thinking I didn't make the cut. The colors look nice. Didn't know it would only measure by pounds, so it won't help with my "lighter" packages. I am still trying to figure out how to put them into good use other than plain decor!

Wow -- they arived. It's only been 3 1/2 months. What a great example of swift delivery for the USPS! The letter that came with it invites me to call them whenever I need shipping supplies. I guess I'd better plan ahead!

Mine arrived today as well and they were sent priority mail! Did someone at the post office suddenly come across a stack of orders 3 1/2 months old?

I'll be waiting at the door for the postman!

I don't think 3.5 months is that long; after all, they may have been unexpectedly overwhelmed with orders for the things and had them on backorder from the manufacturer or something.

My "Up From Zero" DVD took a year or so to arrive. 3 or 4 months is nothing by comparison!

I got them today, they're very patriotic with the whole red, white and blue scheme.

Got them today. Thought I never would receive them (as with other promotions--never got the Guiness towel). They are cool, but my wife and I couldn't figure out how to use them without reading the box!

But they are definitely worth the price!
