If you want "postal service" in Lake Stevens, go to the Bartell's PO annex. They are knowledgeable, friendly, provide great customer service and the lines are usually not that long. Unlike the experiences with the LS Post Office, it is a pleasure to visit Bartell's. Of course one has to endure the horrible home delivery service from our local Post Office unless you use UPS/FedEx/DHL, etc. But at least mailing in person can be a pleasurable experience.
