Anyone want to get rid of a few shipping boxes. My last two go out on Tuesday. Smaller is better for me.
all the best

Mike:

If you send out Priority Mail, you can get free ones of all sizes sent to you through USPS.com

You're not supposed to do it, but you can turn them inside out, re-tape them and send them other ways too. Wink

If you need some in the meantime, I have some small priority mail boxes I could bring by this weeked. Let me know.

Well, I don't recommend doing that--mainly because it's a federal offense.
But, have some styrofoam if you want it.

Federal Offense? Yikes! The post office lady never said anything.

Glad I never did that then. Confused

Interesting what major crimes get swept under the rug and which we choose to make a huge deal out of. Maybe I could plead temporary insanity. (Sorry - I'll stop)

Offer still stands if you do use Priority mail. Other than those, I don't have any other small ones. Sometimes Priority cost is pretty reasonable compared to other methods. Anyway - I'll share if you want.

I found that info somewhere online.
