Cheapest Shipping Service

I sell alot of stuff online, so i'm frequently shipping stuff out. Currently I've only used Canada Post, as it seems pretty efficient and its convenient (located near my house). Currently the services around my area are...
-UPS
-Fedex (not sure if they do personal shipping)

Anyone with experience with all of these services notice a noticeable change in pricing?

UPS and Fedex is expensive. If price is your main concern there's really nothing cheaper than Canada Post.

try purolator.

we use it at work and its usually comparable/cheaper than Canada Post, unless its to some small down far away from a larger city.

This, of course, is after our company discount. But if you ship alot im sure you can try getting one as well
