    Default I need Package in Brampton delivered to Ottawa... On Sunday.

    I cannot drive there.
    Don't got a friend who's gonna take a trip there.
    Mail service will get it there on Tuesday.

    Generally, it's a planning fail on my side. Used a mail-time calculator for Friday and it told me mail will reach next day. I just assumed the same for Saturday xD...


    I need a package in Brampton delivered to Ottawa. It must reach there sometime this Sunday (EST).

    Any Ideas?


    Solution:
    Lost a day's sleep. Took a train @ 6:50 to Ottawa. Got there 5 hours later.
    Walked 5 km to My destination (cuz I got time) and deliver.
    Toured The city's downtown for 2.5 hours.
    Walked 5 km back in the rain (cuz I got time and lack $ xD).
    Went on train back @ 6:20. Got home 7 hours later (train + car).
    Sleep never felt better =D.

    its like 15 bucks with go transit and others if you go to union station and deliver your self. might sound seriouse but if your thing is really important, it will take 8 hours tops.

    I don't know if america has one of these, but in australia, we have sites (well each state has its own one) that allow us to input a starting destination, and a final destination, and it will show you 4-5 possible routes to get there via public transport, leaving after, or arriving before a certain time.

    Perhaps keep an eye out for a website like that (I found it from the train website), its very handy

    FTR: for those who aare in NSW, where I live, its 131500.com.au
