The United States Postal Service is nosediving. In its last fiscal year, it lost $8.5 billion, which was $4.7 billion more than the year before. In an attempt to stem some of the losses, it's planning on hiking rates in April. With the use of postal mail dwindling, America's massive infrastructure...
Americans -- and Oprah -- are well acquainted with eastern Australia. The cities of Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Cairns get so much play in the American press that the state of Western Australia, home to the sprawling city of Perth, doesn't usually even bother to promote itself in the...
The world's an ever-changing place, and that change affects how far your dollar will go on vacation. Lonely Planet's U.S. editor, Robert Reid, contributed to the publisher's newly-released Lonely Planet's Best in Travel 2011. He visited WalletPop to count down his picks for the places that have...
Have you ever shopped with your cell phone? You will. Don't laugh -- there was a time when no one thought Web shopping would take off, either.

The Internet was supposed to make life easier, but the speedy and vast proliferation of available Web tools has only created confusion. Travel is one of the most head-spinning areas, where consumers are dazzled with hundreds of thousands of prices that vary per place, time, and the site used to...
If there's one thing the airlines' recent profit boom can teach us, it's that micro-charges work. They unbundled services such as checked baggage, meals and blankets, and as a result their bottom lines soared. One lodging chain now entering the Western market, Tune Hotels, is applying that price...
Oprah Winfrey and the audience from her season premiere show are Down Under right now beginning their "Oprah's Australian Adventure." As the Big O wraps up her life as a syndicated-TV demi-goddess, Tourism Australia put together the trip of a lifetime for about 300 loyal viewers who were lucky...
A foreign exchange currency company has launched America's first pre-paid currency card that operates on the "chip-and-PIN" system.
