Cheapest way to ship?
Who have you found to be the cheapest shipper? USPS, FedEx, UPS? I need to ship something to my boss, its a $20 bottle of wine (which of course is a little heavy) and I don't want to spend $20 shipping it!
Thanks!

Re: Cheapest way to ship?
for the most part USPS will always be cheaper---but IMO i'd rather ship UPS ground service and get a tracking number and really track the package process online. you can get "tracking" from the USPS -(for an extra fee) but its always so terrible trying to track things.

UPS is only a little more than USPS, and they include insurance which I'd want on something breakable like a bottle of wine.

Check out there websites, I know on USPS you can calculate shipping cost right on there, so it gives you an idea of what you are paying.
I just sent out a 2 and 1/2lb box priority mail for $5

If you can fit the bottle in a USPS flat rate box then it will be $9.80. The box is 11" x 8.5" x 5.5" Or they have a box that is 12" x 12" x 5-1/2" and that is $12.95. Priority shipping is 2-3 days.

Re: Cheapest way to ship?
I would ship with UPS bc like PP said, they insure the package & you can also track. I have also found that their service during the holidays to be better then USPS
