I don't understand why Fedex online tracking is telling me....
That my shipment is IN the town where it is getting delivered, "in transit", but the estimated delivery is not until Saturday????
Like on the tracking page it says "in transit" in Lynbrook. Delivery is in Lynbrook! If it is there, why am I waiting until SATURDAY?!?!

Maybe they are backed up because of the holidays. I'd call Fedex.

Re: I don't understand why Fedex online tracking is telling me....
I think it depends on what service was used to ship it. Say I ship a package saver and it is at the location next day it still may take an extra day or 2 for them to deliver it because I didn't ship via over night. They don't rush a package that did not have that service paid for. Hope that makes sense.

fedex sometimes passes their packages off to USPS for delivery...that could be why it will take so long.

Yes! If it's Fedex "Smartpost", then you have to wait for it to get to the PO, then sorted, then delivered to you. I despise Smartpost. I ordered something from Crocs for our vacation on Cyber Monday and JUST got it today because they use that crappy service! More and more companies use this, and it just takes twice the amount of time.

I ordered this package on Cyber Monday, too! And apparently I won't be getting it til Saturday.
It is VERY difficult to wait that long for new (discount) Frye boots!

Same thing is happening to me, UPS transferred the package to the post office and it's been sitting there for 2 days now.

That just happened to me with Fedex. It said that starting monday at 4am and wasn't delivered until tuesday night.
Yesterday I got my cards from shutterfly delivered out of a Uhaul truck. Things seem to be getting nutty lately!

I bet! lol
This has happened to me so many times. It's just so frustrating, and I'm going to be more selective in who I order from, and not order from companies that use this service.
American Girl ships like this too, just so everyone that got in on the doll deal yesterday is aware!

This is why I will pretty much only order things from Zappos or Amazon Prime.

Ditto... Smart post is the freakin devil and honestly shame on FedEx for even having this terrible option. I've had a package go MIA and amazingly FedEx and USPS blamed one another
