If you have a small scale, a kitchen type one, you can do much of your postal stuff online. You can print out postage, for priority or express mail....all you need is the size of the package and the weight. Even though you can't actually print postage for first class mail, you'll be able to find out the charges and once you know that, you can affix your own stamps to the package. Stamps are easily bought at the grocery store, here and in other parts of the country. It's not so horrible to do this stuff yourself. As a matter of fact, there are discounts in postage for priority mail when you do it online.

When is the last time any of us actually went INTO a bank? It's just the way it is now.
