It all depends on the weight.

Assuming that your recipients are in the US as well:

Your first two letters (letter, 8x10 photo, and a SASE all in a manila envelope) will probably be 3 ounces which is 1.30

On the sase I usually just put .90 which is two stamps but you might want to put on 1.10 to be safe (cost of 2 ounces)

Is the request with a 5X7 a large SASE or did you use a smaller one like a 6X9?

I put 5X7s in a 6X9 envelope with a 6x9 sase and it is only one stamp on both the outside envelope and the SASE but if it is larger you will need 2 stamps on a large sase and at least .90 if you send it in a large envelope.

I hope this helped.

I'm sending out 3 letters tomorrow & I just want to make sure I add enough stamps on everything. I'm sending from Nevada.

The first two letters both include a letter, 8x10 photo, and a SASE all in a manila envelope.

The third letter includes a letter, 5x7 photo, and a SASE all in a manila envelope.

How many stamps should I add on the envelopes I'm sending out?

How many stamps should I put on the SASE's?

I'm sorry if this sounds confusing. I tried to be detailed so you guys could understand it better.
