Share yours!

Easy Amazon Returns (or other packages that need to go to UPS/USPS/Fedex)
DoorDash offers package pickups- right now it's just $3 for 5 packages (plus tip)
If you get an option to return with just a QR code (no box or label), you can just send them the QR code in the app or by text
Otherwise package up and stick a return label on
*DashPass subscription might be required*

Not sure why this is in entertainment - maybe ask a mod to move to finances.

This is a great tip - I have been staring at some boxes that are labeled and ready to go for a few months. They aren't for amazon but are a return for some defective products from the manufacturer LOL

Awesome! I’d have to say EZ fill. They come to our house weekly and fill up our gas tank in our driveway.

Rappid, new package delivery service that’s door to door. Great for sending in my wigs to be washed.
Thanks for reminding me about the doctor that does house calls. Have to try that sometime.

Walmart + just became active for my area for delivery.
Life saving. I don't have instacart as I hated that there was a yearly fee plus delivery fees... here it is 1 yearly fee (and an order minimum but 35 is easy to get from walmart!)

Ooh so many good ones I’ll need to look into!

Uber also offers package delivery- we left my sons epipens in a diaper bag at laser tag about 40 min away and it was pretty cheap to have it picked up and brought over

Does it come out cheaper than a cleaning lady?
