Final suggested date for sending second-class post has been brought forward from December 19th to 12th, and for first class from December 21st to 16th. Laura Joseph, Post Office customer experience director, said, "December 12th is now likely to be even busier in Post Office branches, as customers race to take advantage of the cheaper postage, as this is now the last recommended date for sending second-class parcels to arrive for Christmas."
2nd Class Mon Dec. 19th Mon Dec. 12th 68p
1st Class Wed Dec. 21st Fri Dec. 16th 95p
