Helps keep the post office in business...

She mailed a box to herself at our home prior to her arrival (normal protocol for her). In said box was a barking puppy dog for our kids. Puppy dog's head was partially ripped off. She obviously got upset about this. She attempted to return the dog to a Kohls in our town without the receipt. They only offered her $10 when she paid $15 so she has decided to mail the dog back to her house in her home state, return it to the Kohls there, get another identical, annoying dog toy, then mail us the replacement doggy..... Very cost effective. Especially since its going to likely be broken 5 minutes after the kids open it.
