I cannot tell you how much I love this freebie!  A while ago I signed up for UPS My Choice Alerts because I thought it might come in handy every once in a while.  I am receiving messages about once a week or at least every other week and it is so nice to know when packages are coming.  I get my UPS notice far before the company’s email telling me when it should arrive (if they send one at all).  I love this service and I really can’t believe that it’s free!

 

Here’s a look at the email they send:

 

This notice alerts you that the shipment listed below is scheduled for delivery tomorrow.

Shipment 1

Shipper: MARY KAY INC.

 

Approximate Delivery Time: between 2:00 PM and 6:00 PM

It’s short and sweet!  It gives me the option to change the address or to delay the shipping a few days if I’ll be out of town.  If you ever order packages, you should sign up for UPS My Choice!

 

This is “sponsored content” meaning that I get paid a tiny bit for everyone that signs up but I would not promote it if I didn’t use it myself.  I’ve promoted it before when I didn’t get paid a penny so you know that I honestly believe it’s a great service.
