However, even with the items being sent in "plain brown wrapper" boxes, how would you explain getting a package? Wouldn't your parents question you about what it was that you received? Is there any chance you can get a post office box and have things delivered there? Or can you have anything delivered to a friend instead?

There's an idea for these businesses and I wonder if any of them have tried it - make up sticky labels that LOOK like an amazon.com or barnes & noble sticker, maybe a letter out of place or something so it wouldn't pass an extremely close look, but close enough to get snuck in...
And I have to agree, I get in all KINDS of trouble with credit card issuing banks being able to order all kinds of stuff online!
Books, music (CDs and LPs, YES LPs), board games, toys (not THAT kind you pervs), DVDs video tapes, software...amazing the stuff you can find to order  |
