Ohio, what will power you have!!! I always say "ok, who loved me today" and tear into the box right away.
I forgot to get the mail last night (rough day, plus I was canning green tomato salsa!), and was late for work this morning. It's not like the box is going anywhere -- no one's home today -- unless the cats can open it somehow.

That reminds me of the year my daughter was in Desert Storm (1990, I think). She loves Oreo cookies and I had bought her six large packages of the double-stuffed ones...60 cookies per package, 360 cookies total.
I had boxed them up and left the box on the table when I went to work the next day, intending to take the box to the post office on the following Saturday.
Imagine my surprise when I came home from work and found little pieces of cellophane on the living room floor. I had no idea what it could be -- until I walked into then kitchen and saw the box torn open and all the cookies gone.
I called my doberman AJAX, who came out of the bedroom very slowly and awkwardly. He had eaten all 360 cookies and then drank every bit of water from the large bucket that I kept out for him. His abdomen was so swollen I could have thumped him like a pumpkin.
I called the vet but Oreos (even that many) arent that dangerous for a large dog -- and the time for doing anything medically had passed anyway. He was pretty miserable for a few days, though, and you can imagine what cleaning up my yard was like during that time.

Wow! Amazing they can smell thru packaging. Dogs are smart.
I actually got a bunch of these on clearance a few years back for like $.25. They're good for tight spots but kinda prices for me.
I saw a hint the other day about using a blow dryer as a duster for places you cant reach.
We have so much humidity, our dust sticks up in hard to reach areas. I'm not sure a blow dryer would loosen it properly. But you know,
I wonder how that would work at the back of cabinets or drawers?
Glad you got the Swiffer Duster. I got one from Vocal Point when they first came out. I really liked it for blinds and ceiling fans. Just make sure to fluff out the little dust feelers.
