Wow thats odd. I took mine to the PO and the woman helped me a lot. Even told me how cheap to go and still arrive safe. She gave me a wide roll of clear tape and scissors and told me how to pack it. Maybe it just depends on who's waiting on you. Some people 'eh?! But I'm sure you're will be just fine.

I think her twin works at our post office. I wait until she goes to lunch and go in to the post office. The other worker is just so nice and helpful. :)

Oh no, triplets :lol: We have one at our PO, too.

I got told about the tape on an envelope I sent to another gal here on the board and that I'd probably get the envelope back (but I didn't). It arrived in 3 days.

When I sent my package for Luv's "I Spy" swap, the other clerk at the same P.O. put additional tape on the envelope for me, at his recommendation. C'est la vie! You win some, you lose some! Everyone's doing their job.
