I got super tired of seeing your avatar throwing those fuckin' glasses around in the astrology thread so I fixed it to a .jpg

I've been doing this for 20 years after I learned it from an older colleague who had to travel constantly. Best thing he ever taught me.

Just call the hotel first and politely ask them if it's okay for them to hold your luggage for a day or so before you arrive and you're golden. I've never had a hotel say no.

And it's just so loving relaxing to fly when you have your small carry-on and nothing else to worry about. You get off, walk right past the carousel and get on with your life.

They'll even have the bags waiting for you in your room when you arrive - or have, the few times I've done this. Extremely pro tip right there.

So you can just slap a label on a suitcase and ship it? No box or anything?

You can ship anything you want to, as long as it isn't dangerous to handle (no sharp edges etc).

Tipping chat: What do you do in owner-operated takeout places (literally husband, wife, son, and son as the entire staff)?

Bonus: What do you do if they're Chinese and pretty much everything on the menu is $8.88?

Tip enough to bring your paid price to $x.44. :grin:
