With only nine days to go until Christmas, today is expected to be the busiest day for shipping and mailing.
Yes, that’s right holiday-shopping procrastinators, the big day snuck up on you even faster this year.
Before you make a mad dash to the post office, or start your complete mental breakdown, you should know that Friday is the last possible day that you can mail/ship anything First-Class, and expect it to arrive by Christmas.
So, you can avoid the long lines for a few more days…assuming that you’ve pretty much wrapped up your shopping. Of course, if you haven’t even started shopping yet, well then, you’ve got bigger problems.
