Gas prices...affect shipping and transportation costs. People still ship plenty. My front door is a loading dock thanks to Craigslist and Ebay purchases by my husband. (And me...truth be known). Nothing is free.
I hVe never shipped holiday gifts. Gift cards ship quite cheaply. We are fortunate though, we don't exchange gifts. I just send a check to my one niece and one nephew. $$ talks.
