Staying Organized This Holiday Season?

by: Sandy Baker
The holiday season is upon us. You now have this huge taste of staying organized throughout it. You need to purchase gifts for a number of people. You’ll need to take care of the spouse, the kids of course. You’ll need to remember to take care of your parents, your sisters and brothers….your in laws of course. Then, there are your friends. Don’t forget about the boss either…then there are the co workers….oh, and the neighbor that helps to get your child off the bus. You have to think about your child’s friends, their teachers. Don’t get the bus driver either. How in the world are you supposed to keep track of all of that?

Pack n' Ship Tips for the Holiday Season

by: NC
(NC)—The fun and frenzy of holiday shopping doesn't end at the mall – you still have to get the packages to friends, family and business associates in time for the holidays, and in one piece.

"Taking an extra moment to carefully package items correctly saves everyone money in the long run and lessens some of the holiday stress," says Barbara Foster, a packing trainer for Mail Boxes Etc. (MBE) who works with hundreds of MBE staff in over 275 of its centres across the country. MBE is Canada's largest retail chain of business and courier service centres and is expected to ship more than 100,000 holiday packages this season with the assistance of several of its courier suppliers, including UPS.
