    Wish I could say too bad...but they were never very helpful to me. After awhile, I just ended up going to Lincoln Postal, where the owner is an absolute delight.

    In light of how often people are buying stuff via Amazon, I would think this would be a good time to be in the shipping and receiving business.

    Maybe it was just the Away We Go group...other shipping/receiving businesses seem to be doing quite well..

    I love Lincoln Postal too!  The owner Dean is a delight, agreed!

    The Franklin Ave. location was abysmal. High prices, broken computers, barely attentive staff. However, I always found the employees at the Washington Ave. location to be friendly and very helpful.

    Last time I went to Lincoln Postal it was very busy, and Dean said it was because all the Away We Go locations had closed. More business for him!

    He runs a great shop, by the way. We have a PO box there and it's so nice not to worry about our new passports being stolen out of our mailbox.

    The former location of Away We Go Postal on Washington has become a dry cleaning store.

    I don't know yet whether it will focus on pet food, or pet grooming.
