Does Fed Ex ever deliver twice in one day?? I got a shipment of something today but it's not the paperwork order I was expecting and really wanting.

Smelled like cigarette smoke too - Not happy
 
I've had that happen before...I'm not sure why!?!
 
Hmmm.... what does tracking show? I just checked and 8 boxes that showed to be delivered by Feb 6 are on the truck to be delivered this afternoon! I am thrilled... but I realize that doesn't answer your question. I am thankful that so far, FedEx has been faster than UPS. Did you call the local FedEx office and complain about the smoke? I can't imagine that they don't have a nonsmoking policy.
 
Fed Ex has its different delivery units. They have ground, home delivery and I think they have a separate one for overnight rush. So you might get two different deliveries in one day, (at different times) for example, from Ground and Home Delivery.

ok - well I got the paperwork - YEAHOO Thought we were supposed to get a binder with our first paperwork order but I don't see one - I didn't get a selling season DVD (the one I got with EVERY order last season - I didn't need 5) Ands the Wedding Registry Strategies audio wasn't shipped - backordered I guess = (
 
I would call about the binder because I read that also that it came with the first order. I have also gotten two deliveries in one day because we have two drivers in my area. If they overlook that I have two packages they can get split up on separate trucks.
