If you're travelling within the United States, it's not really necessary to worry about overloading your luggage with all the souvenirs you pick up on your travels, or even an excess of clothing.
Mail your souvenirs back to yourself - packed appropriately, of course. And if you're tired of lugging all your clothes around - mail that back as well!
The cost of postage is usually not that bad, considering the ease and comfort and peace of mind you'll receive by not having to worry about carting everything around with you.
Just make sure you pack fragile items carefully. The post office does not keep all packages right side up, and a Fragile sticker really doesn't mean anything. If you want a seashell or a statuette to arrive safely, pack it in bubble wrap, nestle it in peanuts, and use a sturdy box to ensure safe delivery.
The U.S. Mail is Your Friend
