As someone who ships a lot of packages, I know how much they can cost, and it can get pretty expensive. I have been at the post office before and overhear the price a person is paying to ship a package and I know they can save money shipping it through FedEx. I think people are just intimidated by FedEx and assume they are expensive, but you would be surprised. Even UPS can be more expensive.

FedEx Ground costs about 10% less than UPS Ground for starters. You can also save up to 16% on FedEx Express services and 8% on FedEx Ground and Home Delivery, just by signup up for a FedEx account.

FedEx is also great when you need help packing items as they have professionals who know how to handle awkward sizes, fragile items, or time-strapped packers. They are even great for offering tips on how to minimize the size and weight of a package to reduce shipping costs. I have used FedEx a few times and the staff is super helpful and I saved money!

You can find a FedEx location by checking the website and I highly recommend stopping by if you need help shipping and are on a budget! They also offer Print Services where you can print holiday newsletters, cards, stationary and more in just minutes!

Best part is this great contest FedEx is hosting:
