I use my seal a meal to reduce the size/bulk of fabric I'm shipping. They work like the space bags. You will be surprised at the amount of fabric you can ship in one of the boxes or envelopes you get from the post office. Also, it's cheaper to ship in a box or envelope from the post office than other types of boxes or envelopes.

there is an advantage to using the priority boxes/envelopes & that is that they come with 50$ of free insurance and a tracking #...it's also a lot cheaper this way if i ship something west of the Mississippi River -- otherwise it is very costly!

I ship using USPS priority boxes using Pay Pal. You get the same discount as on USPS. The advantage is when you ship an item less than 13 ounces that can go first class package rates. You get a tracking info for 19 cents and discount rates that the USPS doesn't offer. Free pickup is the bonus!

Have done this also. Works great for extra packing insulation so things don't break.
