well, Frank, it depends, “Does this parcel contain anything fragile, liquid, perishable, or potentially hazardous, including lithium batteries and perfume?”
USPS has no qualms about being late. Asked for flag stamps at counter. None available. USPS out of stamps Go figure. Ordered several sheets in mid Nov. Nothing for a month. Called local office and was told to file a complaint. Planned that for after holidays. Purely coincidentally, stamps arrived 5 weeks late to the day. Seems they got to Kansas and ran out of ‘gas.’
Last year my UPS package Connecticut to Massachusetts and stuff mailed in New England, for the Mid-West or with-in New England, got dumped thru USPS Peach-Tree Atlanta, Georgia. UPS claimed it was a mistake on my package, but mistakes all over New England to the south?
Since Christmas BEGINS on December 25 and END January 5 (the 12th day of Christmas), mailing cards on the 23rd will get them to the recipients in exactly the season.

Just mail them, Frank. See what happens. There’s no discount.

Call them New Years cards, and you are all set.

Technically, yes!

And don’t forget to buy extra stamps! In the US, postage goes up January 1st.

Nope. We can guarantee you they’ll arrive after the holidays.

Depends on the “holiday”, I guess.
The mysterious, shall remain nameless one happening between today and Monday? Yeah, not gonna make it in time.

My hair dresser (beautician???) sends all her cards and presents in July. Then she has no stress at Christmas.
