I'd give them their package.

I am curious how do you know for sure that the neighbors have your stuff since there was no signature required and only the delivery guys word?

co-sign. who knows what happened...

Almost 10 packages over a 3 year span and during the investigations the delivery guys came out said which house they left it at. Who else's word you gonna take??? Duh . . . you ain't gotta Hercule Poirot.

10 packages in 3 years? seriously? that's okay for a professional international company? i live in the hood and it don't play like that. yeah somebody might take you stuff off your porch (i've yet to have that happen) but to have them continuously leaving everybody's packages all over the place, heads would roll around here.

Some have gone to my neighbor on the OTHER side of me, but they bring them with a note saying they left this at my house AGAIN. Correct name and address every time disbelief

The true, good, wholesome and right decision is obvious......just follow Graycaps advice. Its really a shame that stealing a UPS package does not carry the same penalty as stealing US Mail.

If it were me, there is no freaking way they would ever get any future packages after stealing so much from me. Get into the spirit of the season and be merry....one of Robinhoods merry men and donate the contents of all packages addressed to them to a shelter.

Hell..if you really want to be bold perhaps you should open it up and invite them asses over for coffee........

i have neighbours like that.... mad

and yes it's happened to me many times, most recently they got a wedding invitation addressed to us, and gave it to me a day after the wedding date

'oh we got it ages ago...and forgot to give it to you' was their answer

they r massive assholes

so it's not mine...i better give it back nod

Although, i may accidentally drop it a few times on the way to their house, obviously i'd go around the block first as i need to walk the dog, so yes i can not lie i'll drop it as many times as possible biggrin

I would take them the package. Then, when they thanked me, I'd look them straight in the eye and say, "Yeah, I wish all our neighbors would do the same." And walk off.

OK, not that I've composed myself. Yeah, SCNDLS, like Punkie said, give that BITCH her coffeemaker back....whole. lol

BUT, I would let the hussy know that packages addressed to you were left at a "neighbor's door" and that in the future, you hope the favor would be returned. I would also add, "I've had problems with my packages coming up missing, but I won't need to worry any longer since my newly installed hidden security cameras will keep an eye out on any thieves prowling our neighborhood..."

disbelief Oh, hell naw! Something more sinister is going on here. You sure the delivery folk ain't in on this shit? SCNDLS, you be getting some nice, expensive shit delivered to your crib and somebody knows it and they stocking they shelves, chile. lol

Seriously though. Do you have any shrubs or bushes near your front door where the postman can hide the packages from view? I have shrubs and a bay window overhang in front so the postman usually hides my stuff there. However, there have been plenty of times where he had left them out in full view and I've not had a problem.

Nah, the shrubs are in the flower bed so they'd be leaving packages in the dirt. So they leave everything next to the front door. But that's not the issue, they're actually mis-delivering my shit to another house. pissed

yeah you gotta do something about your neighbors stealing from you even though technically you're not out the money, being nice only goes so far then it gets to be foolish and god don't like no fools wink .

but them delivery folks, sounds like it time for the nice neighbors to get together to tar and feather them drivers.

Pop quiz!

Okay, so you have a really passive/aggressive neighbor whom you suspect has been stealing your packages when they are mistakenly delivered to them instead of just placing them on your doorstep. Let's say you've gotten confirmation from a couple UPS/Fedex guys that they DID place the package on their door even tho your name/address is on the package.

One day, a package for said neighbor is left on YOUR door by mistake. Do you do the "right" thing and take their package to 'em or do you get gangsta with they bitchasses and enjoy a new, expensive coffee brewer during the cold, cold winter???

What would you do? hmmm

Give 'em their package and use it as a great opportunity to hint (in a nice way - just in case you're wrong) that you think they've been swiping yours.

Without question, I would give the packages to the neighbor. I would also call FedEx and complain about the incompetence of the delivery drivers.

Oh, then you've got imbeciles for delivery persons. I would definitely call FedEx or UPS or whomever and let them know the workers are fucking up. I can understand one or two mishaps, but 10 in 3 years is too many. See, I'm a suspicious bitch anyway, but I would still entertain the thought that delivery is in on the shit. Maybe delivery guy is fucking your neighbor? lol
