Awesome read. BTW, both UPS and USPS (don't know about FedEx, etc) will pickup packages on demand. Of course, if you live in an apartment, this does mean you have to be home at the time.
Last time I did that with FedEx there was a charge for it ($10 I believe). I don't believe that's changed.

UPS also charges, but IIRC it's less if you have an account with them. Pickup is free with USPS.

#22That "exit intent popup" had better not be a big modal thing or else I hate you.
It's better than alert()

#23I own a Peel case. It's really great, in fact it's the only case I have ever been satisfied with using.
Any you chance you have the "white" model? I'm having a hard time telling from the pictures how translucent it is.

Not sure whether it's changed, but USPS pickup was only free a few years ago when you shipped Priority or higher.
I'm surprised how much time was spent writing addresses by hand. Paypal Multi-Order Shipping and cheap adhesive shipping labels, which can be found on eBay, take a lot of pain out of that process.
