    Default Quick as lightening!

    I've complained on here in the past about not having a LQS in my area. Ben Franklin is the closest thing, or JoAnn's (which I only go to for notions and batting) but I am here to say I've got the next best thing! Missouri Star Quilt Company!!! I ordered the daily deal plus more fabric for my Halloween Crazy quilt. I ordered it on Wednesday, and no kidding.....it came today!! (FRIDAY!) How do they DO that? FAST FAST FAST! I'm a happy online shopping quilty type person today! Thank you SO much M*!!! I LOVE you!

    I agree, they are fast! I ordered Wed. And got it today, but it didn't have to travel nearly as far!

    They are amazing, aren't they? I have plenty of places within a reasonable driving distance to buy fabric and such, but still love M*.

    Yes, usually M* is very quick. But I have noticed that when they send something to me by UPS instead of using the regular USPS, it takes much longer. I ordered something on the 16th and the tracking says it is not scheduled to arrive until the 25th. UPS is much much slower than the post office. Not sure what determines which method they use. When it comes by the P.O. I get it in 2-3 days.

    UPS is delivering packages to the post office now and then the post office is delivering the next day, so on the tracking we have to add a day. Is this being done everywhere?

    Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it.

    The UPS thing did happen with one of my orders. I emailed and asked about it and they said this is something new they're trying and are working the bugs out. But that's only happened once....and I'm not going to admit how many orders I'm talking about!

    They have done it on the last 2 orders, from very different places, the funny part is the ups truck has to drive by our house to get to the post office.
