USPS "Unclaimed" Item?

Well, it looks like the Postal Service isn't the only one screwing up. Paid $30 shipping for UPS next day air and it got rescheduled to tomorrow (1 day late). I understand it's the holidays and they are pretty backed up, but am I entitled to a refund for the difference between two day air and next day? It was pretty darn urgent it got here by today too, looks like I'm just having bad luck. I mean, it arrived in my home city at 5:26PM, I would have gladly picked it up from their sorting facility if they called me... Oh well, that's what I get for procrastinating. FedEx is the only carrier so far that hasn't screwed up on me. *knock on wood*

Anyone else having bad luck with mail this holiday season?

..and I still haven't been able to call USPS or visit their office yet, it's been a really bad day for me.
