Sometimes I think the post office is losing their marbles!

A couple of days ago I had some envelopes that arrived with postage due. The mail lady rang the doorbell. It came to $.84 total. DH gave her $.85 to cover it, "don't worry about the penny". All taken care of, right?

Well, today I put my mortgage payment and a check for some stamps in the mailbox. (We can buy stamps through our mail carrier here.)

DH got the mail this evening and found:
  • 3 new squishies - yay!
  • The mortgage payment - still in the mailbox!
  • The $9.00 check for 20 stamps had been picked up, but no stamps were left. Hope she brings them tomorrow.
  • An envelope with a receipt for the $.84 postage due from two days ago, along with 5 pennies that I guess was supposed to be our change. I guess $.85 minus $.84 equals $.05 now.


And they wonder why they're losing money?
