For cheaper postage, the priority mail video box (box 1096) will fit inside a priority mail flat-rate envelope (especially a padded flat-rate envelope). Then it ships at the same price as the small flat-rate box.
I hope that helps,

Careful Eric---OUR post office will not accept it in a flat rate envelope. However, they WILL accept it in the padded flat rate. Every post office has their own rules---that silly document from the UNITED STATES postal service means nothing if the local postmaster disagrees in the interpretation. Of course I CAN go 10 miles down the road and get a different interpretation (which I like better).

As someone who has worked at a place that receives a lot of packages packed from all kinds of people I can tell you that a lot of times when a box is put in an envelope the envelope is the only thing that makes it. Heavy boxes with pointed corners will tear the flat rate envelopes.

That's why you use a lot of clear packing tape around the edges and corners! :biggrin:

Andrew, I'm sure I told you that I would donate some prizes but don't remember exactly what I said and can't find it - will you send me a PM with what I said I'd give. And before you people start laughing remember this - if you're lucky someday you too will be as my wife puts it "older than dirt".

Additionally - since USPS started 'zoning', for priority mail addresses pretty close to you can acutally find it a little cheaper to go just priority mail then flat rate for up to about 1 pound. Also the regional flat rate box A will hold more bulk and can be only a few cents more than SFRB for some zones.
Belay that Andrew - Mike contacted me with the information.
Perfect!
And thanks for the BUMP in this thread.
Remember, all prizes are donated directly to your other members - so think of this as a massive 'prize in the hat', where everyone gets their name in the hat - so the more prizes we have, the more happy members at the end of the bash!
