I'll be happy to share, no name required.

USPS will come to your home and pick up your packages that you've addressed and postaged through Stamps.com. For free. I didn't know that until recently, when I looked over the company's Web site again to find out something unrelated. You also can get free shipping supplies, which might help you in craft sales unless you need branded materials. I run a candy store, so I need boxes with my logo on them.

Thoughts on postage for a home-based business?

I have a craft sales business that I'm trying to expand, so I'm making some changes to streamline my process. Last week, I got a Stamps.com postage meter. It's saved me a lot of time by weighing my package/printing postage at home, and I've been getting really good discounts on Priority and Express Mail.

I was hoping to hear from other home business owners and their experience with in-house postage meters. Have you been saving money? Any tips or tricks?
