This month I didn't ship anything hard or too big so I used a priority envelope and it was about $4 cheaper then a box. But I think you don't have to send priority as long as it's sent before the due date for mailing as long as delivery confirmation is used, I'm guessing that parcel post could use delivery confirmation....
And today's mail was squishieless.....sigh.
Have we started the bench sitting up yet? I'll bring some nuked popcorn, reasaonably healthy ;-)

OK, Secret Pal, your package is on its way... all I'm gonna say is it's going all the way across the country, kitty-corner, starting in Florida. I hope it makes you smile.

I'd rather send fabulous small goodies than spend $$ on shipping, so next month I'm picking up a flat-fate box and stuffing it.
