We are getting ready to head to Ottawa for Christmas. As part of our preparations, Wayne arranged to have the driveway plowed if it snows while we are gone. Today he asked our neighbour, Shirley, if she would pick up our mail for us (for some reason the post office is very reluctant to actually hold mail - they are quite willing to put a little sign in your box saying "no flyers" while you are away, but they would just as soon stuff all your mail in there instead of charging you to hold it). He mentioned that we were intending to go into Shelburne and get a timer for our living room lights - Shirley said "Why bother? Everyone will know you are away anyway".
I guess she saved us some money at least.
