USPS
SPUDTACULAR!

potatoes in the mail

It's SPUDTACULAR! As with coconuts, potatoes can be mailed without a
box. Simply write the address it's going to and your return addresses
on the spud, have it weighed for appropriate postage, and it can be
shipped as-is. Let someone know they are special. Send a tater!
