Daily Tip 12/10/2005 - Free Boxes Saves Money

Got an item you have to send out to someone but don't have any boxes? Well USPS has you covered. Go to www.usps.com and go to their online store. Search "priority mail" and your results will contain many types and sizes of boxes that are all free! No money at all, no shipping price. You have to order them kind of in bulk though, minimum of 25 per order, but no problem! These boxes normally can only be used for sending priority mail, but cut one side of the box, flip it around and re-tape it shut, and you have yourself a plain old brown box good for sending through any service such as UPS! Surely you can't beat free boxes, and no account is needed. It says they take about 10-12 days to arrive, but in reality it's about 4-5 days, so it doesn't take long either. And if your not in need of boxes for eBaying, perhaps your moving soon and need some boxes... Yes, imagine the possibilities...
