$5 is not anywhere near enough to bribe me into turning on Flash. UPS will be getting my shipping business for the foreseeable future. I refuse to use USPS for anything critical after someone sending me a package made a typo of using "St" instead of "Dr" for the street I live on and it ended up in an overnight package destined for Illinois being sent to Florida.

I thought mail was firstly directed to a center dependent only on zip, and it's then further sorted. If the zip is correct, but a parcel ends up on the wrong side of the country, the mistake isn't due to a typo but probably physical mishandling of mail.

That was my understanding, too (and the ZIP + 4 were correct). I'm just recalling the excuse they used when my package went to the wrong state and arrived 3 days late.

Individually, for the one care package I sent to my sister last month (which was the only thing I have shipped personally in a long time), I'll happily install Flash for a $5 credit.
The real customers, though, are the businesses that ship hundreds of products. $5 is irrelevant.
