Previous notices have contained the pertinent information advising you of these dates on a nice little mailer so you can pin it to your refrigerator. This year it is much easier...
1) Download QR scanner from App Store if you don’t already have one. Ask Great Aunt Ethel as she will know how to. Install the App.
2. Scan the code.
3. Copy short URL provided - your Great Aunt Ethel can tell you how.
4) Open Internet browser on phone
5) Paste short URL
6) Finally get to USPS web site to find out December 18 is final day to send priority mail packages for Christmas (a week/several days earlier than in the past! Thank you for the notice Louis Dejoy).
All of this information could have been printed on the flyer in the first place. So much easier... NOT! Happy holidays...
