Surprise Box

Twas lovely

Great gift my sister and law loved it It was a big hit!!!!!!

On Tuesday, March 29th I ordered a potato from Anonymous Potato for my moms birthday on April 11th and had this random couple’s picture printed on the potato (thanks Google for the random “middle aged couple” image) with a note saying “Happy Birthday Jeanette. Miss you. Tell Eddie hello.” and I signed it with random names I picked “Paul and Jeannie”. See, I expected the order to take 2 weeks or so to get delivered. Much to my surprise I get an email on Wednesday, March 30th (the day after ordering) that my shipment was on the way. Then, Friday April 1st (April Fools Day), the tater had been delivered. Let me just say this was like two gifts and one. My mom was so confused by this random couple she didn’t know that was sending her a potato for her birthday. To her home address! But she absolutely loved it and even text me a photo with the potato in her lap like a little lap dog and said “I don’t know these people but best gift ever. I love my potato.” She told everyone she knew and even asked around if anyone knew these people. This went on until her birthday on April 11 when I came clean and sent her screenshots of my order confirmation showing it was me that ordered the potato.

I shared my experience on Facebook and in a group chat with my coworkers and everyone got a good laugh. Turns out one of my coworkers birthdays was coming up. When I told her about my mom‘s potato she responded “who would send a potato and why? That’s so silly.” So obviously my work team sent her a potato for her birthday. When she got it she said I get it now this was such a joy to open.”
