The only bill that I pay through the mail is my water bill. I bought a book of 20 and they should last nearly 2 years. I just wish that they would work for their money. There only job is to deliver the mail. They are not responsible for picking it up. If you want to get your mail to where it is going and on time, you must take it to either the post office or put it in a Blue Box on the corner to insure that it will be pick up by them. It is just a courtisy on their part to pick it up from your home.

No, I think the best thing to do is to do online cards, letters and such. They don't get lost and usually only take seconds to send. Why pay money to send a letter around for several days and usually miss whatever event you were trying to celebrate. Usually, I do not even get my mailer ads until after the sale or half way through it.

Fortunately, I didn't make the same mistake this year. USPS is very bad about giving advance notice. Last year, I had just bought a roll of 100 stamps when they announced the price increase. Ended up buying 89 2-cent stamps. Most recent purchase this year was a book of 20 "Forever" stamps.
