Strike snd Other Shipping Options

[kwillia08]

I won't mind not getting any bills! Can't pay them, if I don't get them.

Hahaha...yeah right. I just got an email from one of my bills saying "we still expect payment even if there is a strike. You can go online to view your bill. and do not send any payments through mail. please go in-store or online." lol

I'm going to price out letter mail with other companies if they strike. There's fed ex, purolator, UPS, DHL and can par. I normally pay a few bucks for big trades, so why not price it out.

I'm thinking I may have to "coupon fairy" some coupons into some of my other local couponers mailboxes....just so they don't go through withdrawal

Well I work at a FedEx Office (formerly Kinko's) and we do offer a FedEx Ground option which is 10% cheaper than any other out there (aside from post - we're talking tracked options) so shipping a letter or coupons from Vancouver to Ontario would take 4-5 days and cost $7.00

Just an option for people!
I'm already seeing a huge increase in ground by about 150% since the strike was announced...
Yikes...

Thanks for the info.

Not to be rude, but yiikes, the Fed Ex rate it's more than 10 times a postal stamp. Too much for my wallet.

Also check freecycle. Lots of people give away coupons that they are not going to use.

Thanks I will do that. I am happy to know that they are only going on a rotating strike..YAY NO NATIONAL STRIKE..at least not yet. I heard on the news that they are starting the rotating strike in Winnipeg and will tell us later who's next.

Rotating strikes could hit Canada Post starting at midnight

Winnipeg was chosen for the first walkout because Canada Post has built a new facility there, using new technology that the union has complained about health and safety problems due to new work methods and equipment.
