did it take your package to get to your SO while on deployment?! I sent DH his first box today...and the lady said she had no idea how long it would take.

2 weeks to never. His christmas package made it in 14 days, some took 8 weeks, others are still out there.

So far it's averaged around 2 1/2 weeks.

about 2 weeks or a little more. It all depends on where they are and I heard that the mail is the last to go when they do replenshiments and stuff like that.

My guy got his package in under a week and I was stunned. Normally it takes 2weeks-1month.
