This happened to me and I asked the postman about it....apparently they started off knocking on doors and leaving cards if there was no answer when delivering these bulbs.
However, there were many complaints about this as people hadn't ordered them and were annoyed at having to trek to the office so they started just leaving them on doorsteps.
