My husband just gave me another great idea to use in a story: A woman trying to lose weight knows that if there are treats in the house, she will cave and eat them. And yet she wants to allow herself a little enjoyment now and then. So she locks a treat in a strong lockbox and mails herself the key. With the vagaries of the postal service, she may not get the key back for a week or so. When it arrives, she allows herself the treat, then puts a new treat in the box, locks it, and mails herself the key again...
