CHRISTMAS IN SEPTEMBER

A UPS driver told the Kodiak Perspective that UPS has already exceeded last year’s volume of parcel and FEDex is maxing out street time as purchases arrive on the island from internet and catalog shopping due to the distribution of the permanent fund. Parcel volume is also reported to be very heavy at the Kodiak Post Office.

Give people money and they will spend it. At least most of them will. Many live by the adage “A bird in the hand . . .”. Who knows, you might die tomorrow and leave that money unspent. Why wait?

The merchant class thanks you.
