If you are not a member of PPFA and want to save on your shipping costs, well now is the time to sign up! For joining PPFA for a $95 membership that goes through September 2014, you will also qualify for a GREAT FedEx shipping discount. It takes just a few minutes to set up.
For example, I recently shipped 9 boxes, all the same size to Brooklyn, NY. The USPS wanted approximately $31 per box. UPS was about $33. Both were priced without insurance. With the FedEx ground discount the cost was only $18.25 per box INCLUDING the insurance needed. Doing the math, that is about $13 savings per box or $117. Did I mention PPFA has a trial membership for $95? If you need a shipping service like I do, with my example, the savings alone on the 9 boxes would pay for your PPFA membership! How can you beat that? And with your membership there are plenty of resources and benefits that are worth far more than the $95.
So, what are you waiting for?
