We have recently started franking the parcels that we send out by Royal Mail (usually anything under 2Kgs). Although it is delivered by the same postie, franked mail runs through an entirely seperate system within Royal Mail, so it is faster as well as being a bit cheaper.
We have now adjusted the shipping calculator, so all of the prices are lower than before - some by a considerable margin. It doesn't make much of an advertising headline because the rates are individually calculated according to the weight of the order and destination, but it will still save our customers a bit of money which can only be a good thing.
By the way - using the second class service where available you can save even more and if your order is placed before 2pm you still have a 90% chance that your package will arrive the next day.
