4 Ways To Reduce Your Junk Mail
This Simple Trick Will Help You Avoid Spam Emails

Package-Mailing Tips: Save and recycle good boxes, padded envelopes, bubble wrap, cardboard (even cereal boxes) to prevent bending, brown paper grocery bags for wrapping, etc. for mailing. Address the box itself before wrapping or include it in the envelope in case the wrapping is destroyed. Use ordinary tape to tack the wrapping here and there. It will then be easier to apply the clear packing tape without having to wrestle with the paper at the same time. You can estimate shipping by stepping on a bathroom scale with the package then without it and finding the difference if it isn’t heavy enough to register on its own. Look online for shipping cost calculators for major shippers such as USPS, FedEx and UPS. I find USPS is cheapest in most cases for what I send, and they will ship to PO boxes. Some USPS rates include limited insurance and tracking. The cheapest rate doesn’t, and usually the total cost is more to add it than the rate that has it built in. You can also ask the clerk for the options, specifying "rush" or "no rush." Compare the cost of USPS shipping in your own box or envelope to the cost of Flat Rate shipping if your item will fit in one of those boxes or envelopes. Generally, Flat Rates save you money if what is being shipped is heavy. You can pick up Flat Rates in advance. Skipping the steps on estimating shipping cost, I’ve gone to the post office with a package ready-to-go to have it weighed and priced, armed with packing tape, scissors and extra packing material in case it turned out shipping in a Flat Rate box or envelope would cost less. One time, I saved $10 doing so. If you can slip your ready-to-go package into a Flat Rate, even better! Lorraine from Dollar Stretcher Tips
