Well this is bizarre shipping !

I have a order coming from HSN ordered a week ago and shipped on 2/15 from Fontana CA. On Feb 16th I received a tracking update that my delivery may arrive that day after the delivery commitment time due to severe weather but I never received it and no further update. So today 2/20 I get a tracking update that my package has arrived at Hodgkins IlL. The only issue I have with that is I am in Missouri so my package has traveled through the state of Missouri on to Illinois !! What the heck !! Oh well, good thing I didn't need it soon since it's traveling the country.

@Goodie2shoes Not strange at all. The Nation's largest UPS hub is at Hodgins, Il. An item must get to a big hub before it can be distributed to smaller destinations. You'll have it in 3-4 days.

I didn't know Hodgkins was the largest UPS hub in the US ! I do know that whenever my orders come from the east coast and go through Hodgkins IL I receive them within a couple of days. Thanks for the info

@Goodie2shoes

Seems pretty common on many of my wife's orders from either of these 2 shopping networks.

Most of what I buy is from Amazon and I haven't seen much of this.

I also place an order from HSN. It shipped on 2/4/2022 from Fontana, CA made it to Cincinnati OH on 2/9/2022, nothing until 2/16/2022 when it arrived in Atlanta GA. I am about 100 miles from Cincinnati. As of 2/19/2022 shows in transit to next facility. Maybe some day......

Exactly.
