Sometimes, you never know what'll happen next around here!
Some time back, I mailed a free t-shirt to 
DO YOU LIVE NEAR A WAL-MART?
That may sound like a strange question, and we will agree with you. After finishing up our private conversation on steemit.chat about a shipping address for the shirt, another message came to 
Hi, I've got a strange question for you...do you live anywhere near a Wal-Mart? I did say it was a strange question.
Although I am kind of off the beaten path out in the Ozarks, I can still make it to a Wal-Mart in about a half hour, so I told her that I did. I had no idea where she was going with this "strange question" but I was intrigued to find out where this was going. Soon, the response came.
Cool. You see my husband loves a particular style of wallet but we can't get it here, only in USA Wal-Marts.
THE GIFT OF CHAIN WALLETS?
Being one who does try to help when I am able, I was soon at a Wal-Mart looking for this particular wallet. At only $9 each, I thought they were a bargain. @Frostyamber requested two of them for her husband, and offered to pay me for my "services."
In the end, I bought three and just shipped them to her for free, as a gift. It is interesting to see things like this going on because of the steemit community. Whether it is being able to already "know" some locals when you travel or being able to acquire things not normally available in your home country, steemit is rapidly becoming an interesting blessing to many.
IN OTHER MAILING NEWS...
For those of you who saw my first STEEM "COMMUNITY" Silver Round Distribution post you already know that only 1500 of these were printed and they sold out very fast. Many steemians never even knew any of this happened.
Just to help bless the community, I have been working to acquire a quantity to distribute to various steemians. Thus far, I have secured 25 out of the 1500 for free community distribution. I still have to open some packages, but i got another package today. Also, I shipped out my first two to other steemians today.
Of my initial 10 for distribution, here is the status of them all:
- shipped 0812/1500 to Switzerland today
- shipped 0792/1500 to Spain today
- I will hand deliver

All of the "community distribution" silver rounds that I secure for that purpose will be delivered free of charge to the recipients. I consider these rounds to be an incredibly precious part of steemit history and wanted to do my part to get them into more hands.
I will be giving some away as I see fit, and running some contests for others. Stay tuned for more on this initiative as I continue.
As always, I'm and here's the proof:
