What is even worse to me is they charge me the high shipping and handling and then send it out regular mail instead of UPS. And that is for very light items. Hate that!

Did you pick UPS Ground at the check-out?

May I interject? It's the USPS's fault. (I also noticed an increase of $6.72 to $7.22 on various clothing articles, so goodbye to the Q for my wardrobe.)

WASHINGTON -- The postmaster general pleaded with lawmakers on Capitol Hill on Tuesday to pass legislation that would help the postal service right its finances and avoid possible bankruptcy.

“The Postal Service is at the brink of default,” Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe warned at a Senate hearing. “Our situation is urgent. Congressional action is needed immediately to avoid this default.”

The UPS shipping and handling is the same or more. It's QVC, not the USPS in my opinion. There is handling included and the prices for small light items are ridiculous.
