the post office. Way cheaper than UPS especially on smaller things and things that don't need high dollar insurance. I just sent a TT to the Bronx and it was 40% less via USPS and 3-4 days quicker. The post office has mostly dropped parcel post and gives priority rates cheap now when you package things yourself vs using the flat rate boxes which are good too.
A few years ago Popular Mechanics tested the big three by putting accelerometers in packages and sending them. USPS was the clear winner followed by UPS then FedEx so the are kindest to your packages too.
