PSA: Holiday Shipping

I'm sure by now anyone who has been shipping packages over the last month has noticed prices have gone up. Apparently that's been in effect since 8/29 (which explains why they tried to kick back my SASE) but I spoke to a nice lady at the post office today and she told me that it's a temporary hike over the holidays to help pay for the additional labor, overtime, etc. That's understandable (even if DeJoy is a dirtbag). Prices are supposed to go back to normal on 12/27

Just a heads up when you're putting on your stamps for your SASE or shipping out plants over the holidays.

Sorry to hijack your thread, but...
Great point!
To that end, make sure you put my address as the mailing address and the return address on the outer envelope of your request. Also, put your address as the mailing address and the return address on the SASE to help ward off potential issues with you receiving your requested seeds.
Take care,
Chef

Huh. So that's why my last package cost 5 bucks but today it cost 8 bucks.

You learn something new everyday :D
