Sending stuff to the UK for X-Mas
Deadline is 12th November if you want to send stuff on the cheapest rate they have apparently...
But there isn't a huge deal of difference in price going up a rate tbh and you'll have a few more weeks to spare.

What rate is that? I thought the USPS did away with surface mail and everything went airmail nowadays.

Won't make a difference if you're just sending a card and scarf, but if you're sending a huge heavy box of stuff, that's what'll get affected by the rate.

Just be sure to remember how backlogged Royal Mail gets every year...earlier is better!

Re: Sending stuff to the UK for X-Mas
Over the years I've done away with sending stuff over, except fo Xmas cards to a few favourite people and rellies. It costs way too much, I'd rather do everything on line.
