    I’ve never heard of this before.

    What a wonderful thing that is!

    No one around here would ever do that.

    Rhode Islanders wouldn’t even shit in a bag and send it to ya…

    So much cuter than sending flowers – and a little more durable too. Suitors, take note!

    OMG I read in the RedEye about this and I totally want one. I would gush like a teenager if I did. I would freak if they showed up at work or at my apartment.

    That is the sweetest idea!
    It reminds me of the Galapagos Island mail system… you check the mailbox when you are there, and if there is a letter to somewhere you live or go regularly, you take it with you and drop it off yourself.

    Aw seriously cute! Everyone can always use a little more love…it’d be great (and maybe a little creep) to send one to a stranger…
