I need a binder and a packer. At least a binder. I've discovered a way to create my own packer with some gel, a push-up bra, plastic string and sandwich bags (truefacts, but...trope: Noodle Implements (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NoodleImplements)), but a binder I cannot make without ace bandages at least. I'd prefer to buy a binder outright, but this brings up the topic of getting it into the house without my parents knowing. I know a Sportchek that would probably sell compression tops, which might work, and then I could just wear the sucker home, but I want something that REALLY does the job.

So, if I were to order something online...how would I get around a package? Can it be sent to a post office instead and I can go and get it, or what? I really don't know. xP If anyone's still living at home and figured out how to get stuff past the radar, help would be much obliged.

Well, I'm having my mom buy it, but according to Underworks and the reviews I've seen it comes in a big envelope (from whatever company they used to ship it) and says Simple Solutions as the company. If your parents don't open up packages with your name on them, you're probably good. Before I told my mom I was considering having it shipped to a friends. And I believe you don't have to use a credit card, they accept checks and money orders if that's a problem. If you're buying Underworks, here's their info...

Good Luck :)

They might ask but a package like that wouldn't arouse that much suspision, either, (I could probably lie through it in that case xD) so that's quite a relief! Thanks.

I am curious, though - does anyone know if stores can order those things? Like they would in a Chapters, if you wanted a certain book.

Yeah, you could say somebody sent you some papers, or that you ordered a screen protector (computer screen protectors come in a similar looking cardboard envelope package).

About getting a store to order one... I doubt it. I think stores would only order stuff they're meant to carry (certain brands and stuff, things they offer online but not at the store), but if the store does sell compression tops, you might want to ask them if they have something for your needs. I don't really know... Hopefully someone else could give you a more definite answer.

I've ordered books before, so some papers sounds like a brilliant idea.

Thanks for your help!
