IMO PO Boxes should be free and recipients should have to pay for PO Home delivery

When we moved here, we didn't have a choice. We have a PO Box (free) and it gets a card for every package. And you're right, we haven't missed a one! And because this is a small town where everyone is known, they even call up to tell us we have a package if we haven't been in for a day or two. For most we don't even need to sign -- only for the cannabis.
