Going to cost extra to send those packages for the holidays. Depending on the service, $.05 to $$. Starts before Thanksgiving in some cases. So, the way I read it, there will be surcharges on the already added charges for the holidays from UPS and FedEx. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

With all the online ordering during this pandemic, I would think they were making money hand over fist...
Both UPS and FedEx are coming thru my cul-de-sac just about every day.

I agree that the higher volume should help make things more efficient. USPS does seem to have counter-intuitive ideas on how to handle things though. Certainly couriers are busy on our street (16 houses) with several deliveries daily.
