It seems that some residents used to stay awake to catch their delivery person and the paper w/envelope just developed so folks wouldn't have to "catch" the delivery person. Nowadays, you can always just add a tip to your payment to the Sun (but who knows if it actually all goes to the carrier).
That's why I wish they would acknowledge the receipt of tip when we add it on to the bill we receive in the mail. I like you, are curious if they get it?
