    shipping boxes.

    trying to ship out some e stuff. and want proper boxes.

    first stop, post office large box $7

    secound ups, large box $9

    last stop, Uhaul large box WE HAVE A WINNER $3



    obviously free boxes would be preferable, but my transportation situation is limited at best. so I have to do what I have to do. also usps, ups et al have peramitors on measurements of the boxes they ship, extra charges for boxes not fitting their specs, and of course they have custom boxes with measurements that dont fit the norm, all designed of course to try to force you to buy their $9 boxes. sounds like a petty thing but it is not for me. an over price of $6 versis uhaul x 5 is a sizable percentage of my net profit near 5%. just my .02
