Since the second time this happened, we have been going to the USPS post office to mail anything that looked like a greeting card just to make sure it gets where it is going. I hope this change will avoid this situation.
We have sent similar gifts and never had one problem, we use checks.

One of the reasons we like the postal stations is that they are air conditioned and our prescriptions are mailed to us and it is very HOT here in the summer and traditional mail boxes would hurt many prescriptions in a short time due to excessive heat.
