Trudging to the post office in the cold is not my idea of fun, so you can imagine my excitement when I learned that the USPS is now offering savings of up to 14% when you use their online shipping services.
Just order free shipping supplies from their website (delivered at no charge). Then, hop online to let them know when your packages are ready for pick up, and your mail carrier will take it from there.

The package pickup service is not available in all areas, however.
Package pick up is only in areas that have rural or city delivery! But you can get your flat rate boxes, print your postage online, prepare your package and drop it off at the post office–no watiing in line!
Happy Holidays!
