I ordered some samples from Texas Instuments, about 2:30-3:00pm one afternoon and got them the next morning I was shocked! Didn't know they shipped from MN!

Did they ship from their own place, or did they have someone else ship the parts? I ask because digikey is in MN, and I've seen cases where sample orders from a company are shipped by a distributor, with a different sticker. After all, it costs them money to ship it themselves, they may as well just pay digikey to do it for them.
