No. It's the way a lot of these insurance companies work now. They won't let you pick up expensive medications at a drug store any longer. You have to order prescriptions through their mail order system and wait for it to ship to your address. I doubt these people had any choice in the matter.

Yeah the packages being stolen off of porches is getting more brazen though. Used to live in apartments and would flip out when they delivered them to the doorstep and left them there instead of the apartment office like they were supposed to. Terrible situation when you can't trust your neighbors.

A stolen bottle of vodka thought to be the world's most expensive at $1.3m (£960,000) has been found empty on a construction site, Danish police say.

The bottle, made from gold and silver and with a diamond encrusted cap, was on loan to a Copenhagen bar which had a collection of vodkas on display.

CCTV released on Wednesday showed an intruder, who grabbed the Russo-Baltique vodka and fled the bar.

The bottle was found unbroken on a construction site in the city.

I bet the vodka was shit, otherwise it wouldn't need a gimmick.

It was probably just Absolut in there. The article says the bottle is worth exactly the same empty as it was full.

Yeah, same as putting gold flake on ice cream.
