Anytime I see someone has used USPS to ship to me, I know it will be slow
I don't expect Amazon 1- or 2-day efficiency, but it needs to be within the same business week or so. The one bonus is if the object is small enough, sometimes the letter carrier brings it AND my mail that day to the front porch - though if it is windy, 50/50 that some will escape into the breeze.

You really think they'll deliver it today? At least to you? **
