Christmas Stamps

Number 10 on Krisann's excellent list of "10 Tips on Preparing Your Christmas Cards" mentions buying your stamps early to avoid long lines in the post office. I suggest going one better! Order your holiday stamps online and your mailman will bring them right to your door -- at absolutely no additional cost to you!

Just go to www.usps.com and in about 60 seconds your order will be placed, saving you the expense of gas, the hassle of a busy parking lot, and anywhere from minutes to hours in travel and waiting in line time -- depending on when you go and how busy your PO is.

Your stamps should arrive in your mailbox within a day or two after your order is placed.
