We used to get the Yellow Pages (for businesses) and the White Pages (for residential addresses and phone numbers).

We still get a lot of snail mail here. Getting parcels used to be rare but now we're getting them often.

Snail mail is rare now, and they only deliver every second (work) day. Very annoying if you order something that goes straight to your mailbox. Post is delivered so rarely that, if you order something from the rest of the globe and face taxes, you pay the taxes when you get an invoice via snail mail and then you get get a reminder for those taxes at the same time as the bloody package...

Wow, taxes? I've never had that problem. I guess they include taxes in the price of the item. Or shipping.

Kayleigh got a Transformers comic. Plus there were a few junk items which went straight into recycling.

I got some Japanese stamps in the mail. They're already in my album. Though that makes it sound like I only have one album. I actually have many.

If you buy stuff from the US, you need to pay for any number of taxes and fees. And I suspect things will get worse now.
