In 2010, to promote the release of Toy Story 3, Pixar created a commercial for the USPS featuring Mr. Potato Head, Rex, Woody, Hamm (as a Mail Carrier, referencing John Ratzenberger's role as Cliff Clavin, a mailman, on Cheers), and Slinky trying to resolve their problem of what to send to Andy at college because if they send all of it, it would be too heavy. However, this commercial is non-canon with the Toy Story films.

  • United States Postal Service is the postal service in the US that is a government agency made by the constitution.
  • The United States Postal Service is an independent government agency, which is under the control of delivering mail to the people of the United States. They work in cooperation with postal services all over the world, in case it is necessary to mail a letter or other types of mail to other countries.
  • Imagine some guy coming up to you and saying, "Hey, you know that brother you have who lives 2500 miles away? If you'll give me 43 cents, I'll take a 'letter' from you to him." Yeah, right. And yet, every day, unsuspecting Americans hand over dozens if not hundreds of "letters" to men (and women who look like men) who claim to be planning to take the "letters" to people far away. Congress is currently working to eliminate the United States Postal Service and thus bringing an end to this pox on our society.
  • The United States Postal Service (USPS) is a government-run corporation which oversees the mail system of the United States of America. The American postal system was founded by Benjamin Franklin in 1775. Each Christmas season, the Postal Service uses a special holiday cancellation, usually featuring a licensed character. Kermit the Frog appeared on the 2009 holiday cancellation for holiday cards and letters mailed in the month of December.

  • The United States Postal Service (USPS) is a government-run corporation which oversees the mail system of the United States of America. The American postal system was founded by Benjamin Franklin in 1775. Unlike its commercial competitors such as UPS, the USPS is the only mail carrier which delivers mail to the North Pole. This distinction played an important role in the special A Muppets Christmas: Letters to Santa, in which the Muppets had to deliver letters to Santa Claus by hand after the local post office had closed. The song "Delivering Christmas," which honors the postal workers who deliver the letters to Santa, was later made available on an album sold by the Postal Service. Each Christmas season, the Postal Service uses a special holiday cancellation, usually featuring a licensed character. Kermit the Frog appeared on the 2009 holiday cancellation for holiday cards and letters mailed in the month of December. The USPS has also honored the Muppets with postage stamps: Big Bird's likeness graced a 1999 stamp honoring events of the 1970s, while Jim Henson and the cast of The Muppet Show appeared on a set of stamps issued in 2005 to honor Kermit's 50th anniversary. Henson and Rowlf also promoted the 1986 Love Stamp.

And yet, every day, unsuspecting Americans hand over dozens if not hundreds of "letters" to men (and women who look like men) who claim to be planning to take the "letters" to people far away. No one has ever actually received a "letter" via the United States Postal Service. Instead, this government funded, bloated, bureaucracy visits the homes of hard-working tax-paying Americans every day. What do they leave behind? Demands from a myriad of so-called "creditors" who insist that these hard-working tax-payers simply GIVE them money. Congress is currently working to eliminate the United States Postal Service and thus bringing an end to this pox on our society. This article is a stub.
