A small, yet useful lifehack. In Russia, you receive a receipt from the Russian Post at home that says “Something has arrived for you, come and pick it up”. It lacks any sender information or description of what has arrived. In some cases, you can simply ignore the parcel if only the sender’s identity were known – often just this piece of information is enough to decide whether to rush to the post office, go unhurriedly, or just ignore it. But this information is not on the receipt.

However, there is a barcode. And its number can be successfully looked up on the Russian Post tracking service. There, you can see who sent it.
