    Looks like a perfect-size box to ship a laptop

    Maybe this is common knowledge, but it is something that I discovered this morning. This type of box is almost perfect to ship a laptop. And it's free. Not sure if there are models that are too big for it but all of the ones I have now fit fine.

    Depending on where you are shipping to, Fedex has a box that might be cheaper. I think it is around 17 x 13 x 3.

    Hard to beat $0. You can order a set of 25 of those USPS boxes and they will even deliver them to you for free.
