More than once I hade to go about 20 miles out of my way to deliver a 10 ounce manilla envelope with one ink cartridge to a post office...in a semi with a 48 ft trailer..delivery cost roughly $75...many many times i would deliver two or three cases of bottled water (frome office depot??? dohhh) to a post office..for delivery costs of $85 +....I once went 30 miles round trip to deliver one case of copier paper...other times it was toilet paper and if there was no loading dock we added a 35 to 55 dollar inside delivery fee. Sorry to go on so long but this is where these peoples jobs are going...where the stamp increases are going...isn't the post offices one of the largest delivery sevices in the world? Can they not send someone down the street to buy toilet paper? Anyway that is my 42 cents worth Glen give me a call I'd love to tell you more.

I too lost mine, I worked as a semi driver for an LTL carrier(less than truckload) and one of our accounts was the USPS in conjunction with Office Depot who are contracted by the USPS for everything from office supplies, bottled water, toilet paper and most of the other sundry products used in the post offices. The company I worked for delivered to a large majority of post offices in Illinois and adjoinining states. I'm asking you to think about what I'm about to tell you and stack it up against the costs incurred, the jobs lost and the absudity of it.
