Post office to deliver holiday cards online

Rain, snow, sleet or hail may not stop the postal worker, but it sure is a hassle for the rest of us.

So the U.S. Postal Service is letting customers go online this holiday season to design custom greeting cards with a gift card from a major retailer tucked inside.

Gift cards valued from $25 to $200 can be purchased from Bed, Bath & Beyond, Circuit City, Lowe’s home improvement stores and restaurants owned by Brinker International Inc., including Chili’s Grill & Bar and Romano’s Macaroni Grill.

The cost is $4.99, plus postage and the price of the gift card.

Users of the NetPost CardStore, which can be accessed through USPS.com, can choose from a variety of images, fonts and types of cards or upload their own pictures and graphics.
