UPS shipping
Just another tip along the lines of UPS but nothing to do with Canada. If you go ship something from one of those UPS stores and ask them what the shipping will be for each major carrier they DOUBLE the postage for USPS and FedEx. Makes the UPS price look the best and if you do decide to go with USPS say shipping to Canada or a PO box, they still make a boat load even though they don't do anything but put a stamp on it and wait for the post office to come pick it up. So you could go to USPS.com pay say $30 and print a label and schedule a carrier pickup never leaving your house, or drive to the UPS store where they will charge $60, put $30 postage on it, and pocket $30 for themselves. Never send anything USPS unless it's from a real post office or your home not those shippers services type stores. The PO doesn't discount for anybody so they have to make their money some other way.
