MessageHi Jeannie.=20
Yes and the price of gas goes spirialing up.
And along with that the price of postage, especially with UPS and FedX =
who can change their price at will.
We use the USPS for it is less costly and only two blocks away. In our =
rural town they will even pick up at  our mail box, but we usually take =
it in ourselves.
Adn then if you have to send out bills <G>

  Everyone,
  I ordered a tuning fork a couple of weeks ago (yes, they still =
exist!).  It came in a small padded envelope.  The freight cost almost =
half the price of the tuning fork.  I was shocked! =20

      What annoys me is companies who pack tiny parts into huge boxes =

some of
      it, like plastic and styrofoam is darn hard to recycle.
          Schaff isn't too bad in that regard.  They use a little too =
much
      "butcher paper", but not outrageously.
