Default Order IRCs from US Post Office Web site

There was a note in the current ARRL Letter announcing that the US Post
Office is finally selling IRCs on their Web site. I'd like to think that
my polite requests to the USPS had something to do with that :-)

URL:https://shop.usps.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10001&storeId=10052&produ ctId=10006688&langId=-1&parent_category_rn=10000002&top_category=1000000 2&categoryId=10000034&top=&currentPage=0&sort=&vie wAll=N&rn=CategoriesDisplay&WT.ac=10

On the one hand, this will avoid the blank stares from the clerks when
you try to buy some, or finding that they don't stock them even if they
know what they are.

On the other hand, including an SAE and US$2 seems to be enough to
handle return postage from most folks these days, with the added
advantage that a dollar bill doesn't expire.
