Do you think it is safer to get my SN delivered to a pickup shop or my home?

It is due to be delivered tomorrow. I will stay home and try to be the one to answer the door but it is possible someone else could first. It is from P and I think has the chemical sounding company name on the outside. I also have the option to get it delivered to a store for pickup. I am not sure which is safer. To go to my house but risk a family member seeing it (they wouldn't open a package of mine but might look at the sender) or get it sent to a store (but maybe the store would be even more concerned seeing the sender and report it). I have no idea if a store would do that or if I am being paranoid.

Probably up to you,

But I thought of something sneaky.... SN is close in name to the nitrate. The latter can be used (apparently) for vegetables in growing.... you could say "oh I heard this was good for growing vegetables [or thought of doing it this year if you don't do that normally] and if they're like "that's the wrong one!" be like "oh crap, oh well, costs more to send it back than it costs, I'll just order the right one later."

Also, where are you?? In the us, it's not that big of a deal to order SN and have it shipped to a locker or PO box. If people as (other than family), say it's lye you're using to make homemade soap. Or candles in time for someone's birthday. If there is a warning, lye would have the same warning.

Again, you could play the, "Sodium Nitrite??! I clicked Sodium Hydroxide! Stupid Amazon/Walmart/candle supply store!!) If you were caught.

In the US, the delivery services seriously don't care. Can speak about people living at your house.

Best of luck.

I'm not really worried about the courier service more the store that would receive the package. It's not a locker or PO Box. It's an actual shop (so happens to be a pharmacy) that can receive packages for you for you to then collect if you are not going to be home for delivery. I don't think there is a warning just don't know if it looks a bit shady having something from a chemical company shipped to a store. Not that they would assume suicide but that it could be something dangerous in general.

They wont care I'm sure.

Yeah if you're worried about the store, I don't think they'd care in the slightest. Really depending on the place, they're probably so used to things that have warnings/markings on them, they wouldn't bat an eye.
