Back in the 1980's when FedEx was expensive and offered a refund if a package didn't make it overnight, I scored free overnight shipping whenever I ordered something from the west coast with priority AM delivery. For whatever reason, the packages were routed through Newark, NJ, and there was no hope that they could drive it up here into banjo music country by 10:30 AM. When it finally showed up in the afternoon, the delivery driver already had the late delivery reimbursement claim paperwork filled out when he handed me the packages.
Given the choice of paying for UPS Ground and waiting a week, it was worth the $35/package gamble to get my items the next afternoon.....
