Nope. You can get "free" flat rate boxes and envelopes, but they have a "flat rate" when you mail them. I guess you could cover the box up with paper or something before you mailed it, but stealing boxes is pretty pathetic.
Isn't that what Craig got fired for in the sequel to Friday?

You're probably not going to get your envelope back.
I've had money in a birthday card inside of an envelope and still had it stolen, so now I either go with money orders or I cover the money with something and tape it down.

man... it sucks. seriously, i'm fucking broke myself, so i know how hard a loss of $85 bucks can hit you.
but i'm not surprised in the least. you really did not go about it in a very intelligent manner. maybe next time you'll take more precautions.

Chances are if you need to mail it then it will be obvious. If I write the recipient's town as the return address and the mailing address is the town I'm currently in don't you think they'd catch on when it was picked up in the town it is getting mailed to instead of the town it's getting mailed from?
