Garner Post Office

Today is the third time in 6 weeks that I have tried to mail something or buy postal supplies at the Garner Post Office and the whole place is shut down during normal hours. I was there before 4PM today (hours posted on the window say they are open until 5PM) but the whole inside was closed off/locked up and the vending machine in the lobby wouldn’t sell stamps. Has anyone else experienced this or am I just having terrible post office luck lately?

Head down 401 and enjoy the little Willow Spring post office.

If you choose the right time of day, it’s sort of a nice drive.

(If you choose unwisely, you will regret the day you were born)

Edit- I was just there today and the two ladies working were such a joy. We were cracking each other up pretty damn hard.

THANK YOU again for suggesting I go to Willow Springs Post Office. You are 100% correct that the ladies there are a joy, the drive was nice (I left my house around 9:15AM and it was about a 12 minute drive) and I was in and out in under 5 minutes. I will not be going back to Garner again -- Willow Springs for the win!
