Postal Letter

Can you purchase boxes for shipping at the post office?

I need to ship something, but I don't have a box to ship it in. When I go to the post office to mail it, will I be able to buy a box from them to put it in? The object is about the size of a shoe box, so I would need something bigger than that. Thanks!
