This weekend provided me some laughter from the USPS. If you are planning to ship any gifts to your loved ones this year, please consider insuring your boxes. While my Etsy shop has open for only a half year, I have run across a lot of things the USPS has done and it doesn't matter what service you are choosing whether its media mail, first class rate, or priority mail, some how something happens to my packages sooner or later. Hence, I have learned that no matter what the price of the item is, I need to have it fully covered just in case. I know that shipping cost can be high with insurance but for just a bit more it provides a added protection that is needed. If you are running a shop or planning to mail stuff to your love ones this holiday please spend that extra money to get insurance, you will fill better knowing that you are covered.
Don't Trust the USPS
