I ordered a pack of $1.19 3×5 index cards from Staples on 8/10/07, expected delivery on 8/14/07. A calculator I ordered at the same time was delivered by UPS on 8/14/07 separately packaged. No such luck on the index cards, I didn’t realize I ordered the Flat Stanley brand. Current UPS estimate is 8/22 after taking an interesting route:
