Was there a stamp on the envelope, was the address showing through the window in the envelope, did you put it in the correct mail slot? I am not being flip, but I have been renewing for around 12 years by mail with no problems.

I just called today to renew, was out of town and just used Amx. If I am in town I just walk check into office.

Snail mail has become too unreliable, mailing out of postal stations. Had 3 different renewals this year for clubs never showed up. I don’t get charged for cancellation of checks, so now just hand walk them to treasurer.

Anyone who sends Bday cards or Holiday Cards buys forever stamps by the hundred. I bought 200 when the first forever stamps were available. Bought another 100 when they were under .50. The guys at Wildwood always reminds customers when cost is going up.

What is a check? You mail it with a stamp? LOL

I have not mailed or used a check since around 2008. I don't even have checks for either of the two bank accounts that I use. Banks have this really great product call BillPay. They mail it for you. No postage cost. No envelopes. No filling out checks. No signing them. No check register to record them. You can review all payments to any payee in billpay.

Yes. You need to fill out the correct address - once.

Once you try it, you likely won't go back.

Cashiers check for a real estate closing. Hand delivered, of course.

If you're ever around Spanish Springs you can take it to the office. There's a staircase in the breezeway next to Kilwins Ice Cream parlor.

I got tired of having to get another reader when one needs an upgrade or I just wear mine out and have to replace it. My last reader is an Apple iPad Mini. I put the Kindle app on it also the Nook app. That way I don’t have to carry my ebook and my iPad when I travel. One and done!!

Hand made card are abundant in TV, average card sales per craft fair is 500-1000. Greeting cards are big business in most retirement communities. Starting in November average Mail Drop can 10-30 cards. According to postal staff.

Postal employees at Wildwood know some of their customers by name, so must be a popular to still send cards.

I know cards I send to family and friends end up on social media “Look what I got in the mail today, I am Loved.” My daughter in law takes cards displaying on shelves, in her office so her patients and employees can see what new card came.

I guess I should’ve expanded on my premise....it was half jokingly, but more on your earlier comment on the ‘efficiency’ of anything USPS related...getting to its destination on time (ie; bills etc). So following that narrative...maybe send the holiday cards out around Halloween!:1rotfl:

I heard from a friend in S. Florida it takes a week for a check to go across town - if it isn’t returned to her before - because the post office is consolidating distribution centers. This is part of an article from Google - lots more info online:

The delays appear to largely stem from a new system the Postal Service began rolling out last fall that will eventually funnel all the nation’s letters and packages through a consolidated network of 60 regional distribution centers — similar to the airlines’ hub-and-spoke model. The change is part of a wider $40 billion, 10-year overhaul of the network that Postmaster General Louis DeJoy has said will reduce costs, improve reliability and make the Postal Service more competitive. But in some instances, the plan has done the opposite, according to the Office of the Inspector General for the Postal Service, members of Congress and Postal Service advocacy groups.

Isn’t online payment an option? I haven’t paid a bill by check in over 10 years.

Who uses checks and stamps and envelopes and the USPS?

What financial institution are you using that doesn’t offer online bill pay? It’s 2024, AFAIK they all do

Actually I posted that snail mail from Postal Stations can be unreliable. This is our 4 village each village have had mail never arrive when mailed from neighborhood Postal Stations.

We drive to Wildwood Post Office and mail will arrive to MI, SC, NC, and KY in 2-4 days. Never had a lost envelope for 15 years.

Our Daily Sun payment from Postal stations have been lost or one returned from the last 3 Villages.

Did you send from different station or post office this time?

We have one of 2 important mail a year come to the house, everything else is online.

Informed Mail shows envelope on 7/1 still missing as of yesterday. We stopped sending or receiving as much mail as possible out of mail boxes. 3 people had their cards returned after I could see them in my informed mail. No idea why they were returned address was correct.

I just sent it from the Villages post office for our Village. Nothing yet as far as it being cashed.

That explains why a couple of weeks ago, I was mailed something from a Village a few Villages to the north of me from zip 32162 to 32163 & it went to Lake Mary first. Lake Mary??? Way out of the way.
