Here's one I never heard of before. The wife is selling some china on ebay. She has to ship some items. Her son has been bringing boxes home from the bar he works at. She packed an item in an old Pindar wine case, and the Post Office wouldn't accept it--"We don't accept anything packed in a box that used to hold alcoholic beverages"

Is this USPS policy all over, or did she just run into some freaky tea-totalling postmaster
