SEATTLE — We all know how frustrating it can be to have packages delivered to an incorrect address, but one Seattle-area Kmart was in for quite a surprise when it opened a package in its stockroom and found 10 pounds of pot inside.
Seattle police reported that shortly after noon on Jan. 28, Kmart employees alerted police about the unusual package that had arrived at the Kmart store at 132nd and Aurora Ave. N. The package, which contained not only the aforementioned 10 pounds of pot wrapped in garbage bags, but was also stuffed with packing peanuts and Korean newspaper soaked with cleaning fluid, appeared to have been shipped via UPS from Los Angeles to a Philadelphia address.
The package never made it to its intended destination and for whatever reason, the return address on the package was the Seattle Kmart.
While it’s one heck of a Blue Light Special, the pot never made it to the store’s shelves and police seized the pot and are investigating the incident.

It is not called pot it is called marijuana if we are legalizing it as a state then stop using the incorrect term to make it seem bad.

technically it shouldn't even be called marijuana – it's cannabis.
February 2, 2013 at 12:16 PM
marijuana was actually the term given due to the racism early on against Mexicans, at least that is what I have heard.

They probably call it pot because it grow like house plants in a pot.

January 31, 2013 at 6:00 PM
thats really funny – they should have put it on the shelf $15 per gram
February 2, 2013 at 12:14 PM
Amen….just start selling it already it is LEGAL IN SEATTLE! Well, possession at the moment.
February 2, 2013 at 12:15 PM
so I guess they just let it…..sit there. What a waste.
January 31, 2013 at 6:31 PM
It was the Blue Light Special that day.
January 31, 2013 at 6:32 PM
And now both the buyer and the seller know that they both acted in good faith and neither screwed each other.

Hey mail it to me!

Second, I'll take some also. Blue Dream Kush please, but really any mid strain will do fine as well.

To those above me… you all seem to be! Lacking in intelligence.

You should have used a capitol letter on the word "you".
Thank you for pointing out others intelligence.

I didn't know you were the grammar police.

Actually, you are incorrect. In the structure he used it is correct to leave the Y in lower case.

Ughhhh jealous!!!!
February 1, 2013 at 2:27 PM
Soaked in cleaning fluid. So it was a cannabis incendiary device. Now that is improvised!
February 1, 2013 at 2:38 PM
JUST LEGALIZE already and stop the madness
February 1, 2013 at 2:39 PM
Colorado and Washington did a great thing, and I hope it is legalized soon everywhere. Stop locking people up for private use of marijuana already.
February 2, 2013 at 8:01 AM
I had something really intelligent and profound to say……..but I forgot what it was.
February 2, 2013 at 12:13 PM
lol….dude…..wait, what? Phil's not here maaaaan hahaha
February 2, 2013 at 11:40 AM
At least a white person did not make the discovery. If so, they would have probably shot everyone in the store, to include the little kids and blamed it on mental illness and Call of Duty.
February 4, 2013 at 4:03 AM
It's cannabis not pot and not marijuana. Just saying.
February 4, 2013 at 8:36 AM
dude what was that address I was suppose to mail that to again? puff puff aww man I'm so stoned was that 123 XX st or 321 XX st.
February 4, 2013 at 9:30 AM
Looks tasty.
February 4, 2013 at 2:52 PM
ha ha that is way too funny!! also did you happen to see the ad posted next to the story? yup an ad for ups!
February 4, 2013 at 7:23 PM
Hilarious! Either someone got the address wrong, or they REALLY want KMart to start selling MJ! Well, once it's legalized for sale, we just might see it on the shelves there!
Personally, I despise potheads, because they act like m0r0ns when they're high. I have no respect for such fools. But the same can be said for drunkards too! And pot doesn't appear to cause violent behavior or addiction, so it should be just as legal to sell as booze.

I bet it was going to be sold next to the munchies.

We have acquired our bailey buttons to get 2.A few years right now. I live in Minnesota along with regularly take Cheap Burberry Handbags for Sale through the compacted snow. We have painted Cheap Burberry Handbags for Sale however the compacted snow foliage little staining anywhere. In addition ultimately the most notable moves right down and won’t keep all the way up anymore. And for the shorter bailey buttons you will want to take skeletal denims generally your denims fall out
