USPS Electronic Track & Confirm
One thing I like to do, almost obsessively, when I send a package away is to check it every morning or evening on its whereabouts. I send everything in a Tyvek bag via USPS First Class Mail with the Delivery Confrimation. The cool thing about Delivery Confirmation is that it helps you track and see whether your package takes the three day speed it lists when you use the postage price calculation. Imagine my dismay to find that a package I sent to it’s recipient in IL got misrouted to a USPS location in MO this morning as I was tracking it’s location!
Morale of the story is to always buy Delivery Confirmation, it doesn’t cost that much and it’s fun to track and feel that peace of mind when it’s finally delivered.
