If the shipping companies will be pushed beyond their absolute limit, this could likely be the year it happens. What I personally saw yesterday at the post office... and what I experienced at a big UPS depot/hub about a week ago when I picked up a package I had held-for-pickup was unreal. Imagine being in Manhattan during rush hour... and all the cars being brown UPS trucks and big 18-wheelers. That's what the local UPS hub felt like around 8PM that evening. Had to be there to believe it.
