  • Re: Shaving Cream question

    I wanted to give my take on this post. My son is stationed in Anaconda and he just told me he has more than enough. "I don't know how I am going to pack all this stuff," he said. Shaving cream - I kept hearing that canned shaving cream is not allowed. But he said everyone gets them. I told...

  • New to this... PO problem.

    Hello everyone! I'm new to this and I want to say thank you for all of the educational posts about shipping! I've learned a great deal and already set up an account with the USPS so that I can order my supplies online. I took my very first package to the PO today only to come back home with it...

  • Reminder: New Postage Rates May 12, 2008

    [quote user="Phillis"] When we found out stamps were going to $.42 on May 12, I started asking my local postal clerks how the FRB's would be affected--even as late as this past Saturday they said they didn't know--said they were always the last to find out any postal news and that I...

  • Re: post office lady tells me that APO boxes are only for shipping to APO's

    It certainly pays to be informed ahead of time. I had a problem shipping in a designated APO/FPO box today (the 12" X 12" X 5.5" box). The postal worker weighed it and was about to charge me $20! He said I would have to repack it into the large Flat Rate Box (FRB1?) to get the lower rate...

  • Re: Suggestions from a Post Office employee's spouse

    [quote user="Buckeye Sue"] I understand that this extra step of printing off PO policies should not be necessary, but remember PO employees are not always given timely information that they need to perform their job properly and you will be part of the solution by providing them with the correct...

  • Re: Another misinformed postal worker

    [quote user="ABCgal"]. The post office lady acts like I'm a real cheap skate. She told me that parcel post will take weeks (maybe 4-6 weeks) to get there. I just feel really confused. [/quote] The 4-6 weeks sounds ridiculous if you are shipping to a 'AE' address from Queens. The...

  • Re: Another misinformed postal worker

    I'm glad it worked out for you. The first box I sent went parcel post and the USPS worker wrote the letters S.A.M . across the front of the box. Any idea what that stands for? She explained it meant the box would only be picked up if room was available but I'm wondering what the initials mean...

  • New Clip & Ship Restrictions

    I just tried to print a label for a package for mailing, but the post office's web page won't let me do it. It says that you can't print labels to zipcode 093xx anymore (which is just about everywhere the troops are). So I tried changing the zipcode to a non-093xx, and it still won't let me print one...
