Do you have a link or something. Tried to create a label, but I didn't get a discount. Does this include Priority Mail?

USPS log-in

I start in HERE (I already have an account) and select PRINT SHIPPING LABELS, log-in, pay and print. It discounts the price prior to making the payment..

According to the link they have there, it's $35 for a 5 pound scale, and $40 for a 10 pound scale. Plus whatever they might charge to ship it, if anything.

I usually just use my bathroom scale. It's digital, and pretty darn accurate.

You use your bathroom scale?? I have a small scale that maxes out at four or five pounds... I assume that your packages are at least 3lbs?

If so, I'd encourage you to take a look at FedEx Ground. I did the comparison a couple of years ago and found that for packages 3lbs and over, FedEx Ground if a better deal... plus you get tracking... but it's slower than USPS Priority if you're going across the country.

If you are talking about the "Stack and Weigh" plastic arches they gave away last year...the answer is no, they don't have them anymore.

1. Stand on Bathroom scale and weigh yourself
2. Grab Box
3. Check new weight :-O

Pretty cool, I'll start using this, I ship with USPS very often. Now just to find a scale...
