Very annoyed today. Another parcel has now been 'lost' between being posted and the final destination! How can packages get lost? Do people see items of post laying around on the floor and say "oh look, an item of mail" and walk away?
I understand human error - sending an item to the incorrect county, etc, but said item should eventually get to where it is supposed to be even if it arrives weeks late!
As all my parcels are sent with the packaging slip (clearly showing the address) within a plastic stick on sleeve on the front of the package, a return address label on the back plus a copy of the packaging note inside the parcel (in case all the addresses are ripped off somehow! then the package can be opened by authorised postal workers and sent on to their destination or returned to myself). So how are my packages lost?
I read in the news occassionally that postal workers do get charged with stealing mail, maybe the CCTV needs to be updated to prevent more of this happening!
Time to fill out another 'lost' package claim form and replace the order to the customer - this time by recorded delivery!
It's a good job I always get the proof of postage stamped so hopefully I get the item cost refunded by the delivery service - sometime in the next 3 months - if I'm lucky!
Favorite item today - Long diamante necklace

Rain again.
Any business guide you read will tell you to try starting out with something you know, with me I knew how much my kids were spending on jewellery that fell apart within a few weeks and cost most of their pocket money! Hence Glitters jewellery.
If you still have no idea what to start selling to make a profit then how about looking up and around and seeing what other people want? In this country (UK) I would say umbrellas! Considering it has not stopped raining for the last 3 days an umbrella business would have a lot of sales! If anyone does decide to sell umbrellas can they let me know as I still can't find the see through enclose-your-entire-head umbrellas that the kids want!
Just finished putting some more items in the shop, chunky bracelets, pearl items, christmas party wear, etc, so lots more pieces for you to go and have a look at!
Favorite piece of jewellery for today - Chunky charm bracelet
