I usually bake and make candy for mail lady and refuse folks. Seems like I heard that $20. is sufficient

Wow. Tipping a Federal wage-slave? Homeland Security will arrest both of you.

I always buy mine a nice box of fancy chocolates or give them a gift card to a nice middle of the road restaurant or deli for a lunch and a thank you card...
Money is never really appreciated in small amounts! and apparently it's illegal? (See answers above) I didn't know that~
Everyone loves chocolate!

It is against federal law to give your mail carrier any type of gift. It is considered bribery, even on the holidays.

I don't know what the law is in your state, but where I live, you can't give money. We can give baked goodies, or a gift but money cannot be given.
