So hubby goes today to the PO to pick up my parcel and then he calls me. I ask how much did he pay, and he said 'nothing'. I ask 'how come'. Well, he says, when they asked what's in the box, he said it's rocks. They like 'what??
'. To cut a long story short, they were going back and forth with hubby as they didn't believe him, as in 'say again, what's in the box'?? Then they said they will open the box to check, so hubby said to 'go ahead'. When they opened the box and saw that there WERE rocks in it (and some grit, ok), they were on the floor laughing. 
Hubby tried to maintain what dignity he could, and he left from there graciously after they told him he doesn't need to pay for the package...

haha! Your poor husband I bet he felt so silly picking up a package of rocks.
hahahaha! I bet that's the first box of rocks they've had come through. Thanks for making me laugh.
I only wish it were like that at my post office!! I would rather take that reaction then have to pay the high shipping for the weight of rocks.
Great story! You know you're either a jeweler or a geologist if you can answer yes to the question "Geez what have you got in there, rocks?"
LOL this is one heck of classic!
