I decided to rewrite my post about online stamps and shipping labels. I was looking to cut business costs. We used stamps.com for a while. It was convenient because we didn’t have to run to the post office to buy stamps. Then tough times, we had to cut out the costs. We didn’t have a very easy time canceling our account with stamps.com, but that is another story to be filed in another category.
If you sign up for an account (free) at USPS.com you can buy stamps and shipping labels online and have them delivered the next day by your letter carrier. Printing labels is easy at USPS.com once you get the hang of it and you don’t have to pay a monthly fee. The local post office will even make a special trip out to pickup your package. I just give mine to the regular mail delivery person. You don’t have to pay the middle man by going directly to USPS.com. Great cost cutting ideas.
