Let's get postal

Seriously, it's amazing how convenient and efficient our postal service is.

Especially considering ...

I received an advertisement in the mail from the U.S. Postal Service. It encouraged me to "Ship and mail from these local businesses."

It listed 32 businesses, 31 of which are some 100 miles or farther. The "close" one is only 50 miles away.

I wonder how much they paid to design, print and distribute this helpful pamphlet.
