...do you send care packages to your deployed SO?

about once every 2 weeks

whenever i can afford too!! which is not often!! probably every 2 weeks, i try to write letters in between

A care package about every 2 weeks and a card every few days...

I am such a bad GF. I have only sent one, but plenty of cards. Oh yeah, he hasn't rec'd any cards yet, the mail delivery sucks the big one.

atleast twice a month

atleast twice a month

oh ok. and you're not a bad girlfriend. :)

at least once a month sometimes depending on what he needs twice a month.

typically I send him a box every other week. other times I go overboard and he gets like 3 at a time from me.

between 2-3 times a month...lots of cards+letters+pictures in between though...

Making care packages and writing letters to him keeps me occupied and I enjoy it...and I definitely KNOW he enjoys it...he tells me all the time how he brags to the other guys an they wanna punch him sometimes cause he talks about his packages so much :)

at least I know he appreciates it :)

So far I've sent 3 packages in 5 weeks ;)

I think at the end of the 6 month deployment I had sent about 20 packages and about a card every week.
He got a LOT of mail :)
But it was mostly my daughter, she loved sending daddy stuff, so how can I say no!

(this is what i meant to quote before, sorry).

Tomorrow it will be 2 in 2 weeks. All of a sudden he is asking for things. I like it :D I might include a few things he didn't ask for :censored but I don't think he will mind.

I send one package a month and a card/letter a week.

oh geez.. this makes me feel horrible. i havent sent a package since the summer. not including xmas.. which actually i havent sent yet. the first few months i sent them like crazy.

he never wants anything, and says he doesnt really have room for stuff. plus i cant afford to... so he gets mad when i do. i know he has to love it, i wish i could do it more often.

I have only sent 3 packages in the last 8 months. He never asks for anything so I just send him whatever I feel like.I send him a letter or card once a month also.

do you ever send care packages when they are just in training but still gone for 4-6 months at a time?:dunno

Never.

Somehow- whenever I send them, they take 3 months and everything gets opened, stolen and messed up.

So yeah- I just don't bother. I do shop online for things he wants and needs- and somehow he always gets them quickly and untouched.

I must be jinxed.

I plan on sending them every 2 weeks... That shouldn't be too much I don't think...

about one a month. mainly because i'm in luxembourg and its really expensive to mail them... he gets loads of letters though, and usually the boxes are pretty big. my mom sends him one a month as well, so he's pretty well taken care of!

about once a month unless he needs something.
