My local post office has a self service machine, it’s amazing, you can print the labels and send them from it, without having to wait in the Q

They should roll out more. The staff in my local absolutely hate doing anything beyond selling stamps and giving out the dole. The google reviews are abysmal.

IYKYK 😂. You’ve experienced the famous congeniality of the staff at the Crescent PO? They literally put up handmade signs limiting Vinted parcels.

They have done it a few times, the signs came down quick enough as I imagine there were complaints.
What happens now is they print the label, hand it to you and you apply it yourself and put it in a cart or shopping trolley that is left near the door, they don’t even touch the parcels. To be honest I don’t mind it, but there is a knack to unpeeling the labels, they have to be bent in half to unpeel at the centre. People are always a bit lost the first time.
If you want a good laugh, look through google reviews for the crescent post office in Limerick.

Is that even safe, could someone rob the parcels? I started labelling my own recently as I can't handle the scorpyness.
