Good recession news... but hurry!

If there ever was a time to shop for deals on electronics now is the time. Laptops, flat-screen TVs and cameras are all declining in price. Online retailers give consumers the power to compare prices and find the best bargains without leaving home. The only problem is that price drops may be slowing down and may be reaching rock-bottom. You may want to take advantage before it is too late. If you do find that perfect deal and want to get your package more conveniently, why not ship the delivery to a KinekPoint Depot!

Will economic downturn deliver a crime wave?

Thieves are on the lookout for deliveries left on doorsteps
Experts worry that the combustible cocktail of rising unemployment and deep law enforcement cutbacks may lead to a spike in crime. As the recession deepens, more evidence accumulates that crime is on the uptick. Having your package deliveries left on your front step while you are not home increases the opportunity for a theft. Help limit your exposure by sending your packages to a KinekPoint Depot. Ensure that your important deliveries are not exposed to the threat of theft.
