I know most of you guys (OK - all of you guys) are pretty much used to my random rants and totally just ignore them...
BUT...
You might remember my little story about lawn mower parts and the USPS? Anywho... Something interesting was brought to my attention. I ordered an item (that radio for my new drone habit) and it was sent UPS "SmartPost." That means the package is picked up by UPS but the "final mile" is done by my "friends" at the USPS (boo!
).
Well... UPS sends me this "My Choice" e-mail altering me of this fact and providing me with the tracking number. They also include this offer:
Do I do it or not?

Yes. Much headache this will prevent. But I'm cheap and not sure how much my headache is worth.

with the post office being a half hour away, you will probably save $3.50 in gas alone.

It is a 20 mile round trip but it takes so long because I have to literally go over the river and through the woods to get there. Lots of twits and turns on an inefficient route. I pushed it pretty good the last time I went in an effort to beat the clock and it still took me 20 minutes one way.
