Shouldn't postage charges be reduced at Christmas? At the moment we pay the same but it takes longer for anything to arrive. I think postal services should either get more staff so that there aren't any delays or reduce the prices.
In the netherlands there IS a reduced postage for christmascards.
From 23 November 2010 to 6 January 2011 you can send cards for Euro 0.34 in stread of Euro 0.44 to an maximum weight of 50 Grams a card inside the netherlands.
Packages are normal price.
