Any Canadians use this? What delivery services do you normally use for shipping within our border? Canpar, Fedex, UPS? I assume there's other cheaper delivery services (domestic), but I recently signed up to Venture. Saves you 8% on shipping (and over priced supplies which you should buy elsewhere anyways) and the best part is you pay for regular delivery but get priority faster service and free $100 insurance on every package. For sets +$100 you can always chose to added in extra insurance. It's free to sign up. They don't require you to fill in a business number. The mail manager at my local Shoppers Drug Mart told me he signed up but didn't use his business number and you just fill in your regular info. Obviously he's biased and prefers I stay with Canada Post. Using Canada Post is just convenient for me, so many locations and close to my house. My in-laws sometimes gives me free stamps too so that off sets shipping costs :)
