Received a weird package today...

I received a package today from Neiman Marcus, delivered by FedEx (I had to sign for it.)

Inside was 6' of patriotic bunting and 6 plush frames that read "It's A Girl". Chat Icon (ETA: I didn't order these items! Chat Icon )

There was no invoice or anything else in the box with these items.

And to make things even stranger, they used my maiden name for shipping. Chat Icon

1. Any ideas how or why I would receive these things?

2. What the heck do I do with this stuff!?! Chat Icon

Chat Icon I would call NM b/c it could mean your CC # was stolen. I could be wrong and I hope I am. but that sounds very suspicious - esp the use of your maiden name

It's the swag stuff that you see on houses and fences around Fourth of July.

It's kind funny though - usually bunting is associated with babies and "It's A Girl" means a new baby. Maybe it's clue - like in that movie "Midnight Madness" from the 80's.

OMG! That's the name of that movie!! I was thinking about it the other day and trying to remember the name. Thanks!

ETA: I was going to rent that movie to see what I missed. It's fun to watch those movies from my childhood because I didn't understand some of the humor back then.

Re: Received a weird package today...

wait, was it really sent BY NM, or was it just in that box? Perhaps someone you KNOW sent it to you?

You guys are too much with the clue stuff. Chat Icon I hope it's not a sign of anything to come because the items seem to be damaged goods. Chat Icon

I haven't called NM yet.

And a big thank you for the congrats girls! Chat Icon Chat Icon

It was definitely sent Fedex Overnight Express by NM. I checked the tracking number and it orginated at NM.

My DH deals with buyers at NM, but none of them know my maiden name, nor would any know that we were expecting since DH and I only found out last night. Chat Icon
