Stamps and Envelope (Help)

Unread post by Choyce97 »

Ok... So to send a letter, 4x6 photos (x3) and a SASE (which wasn't even stamped yet) it would cost 2.07... Sound correct for an envelope 6x9? Never bought stamps before so not sure if the price is accurate... The person at the post office could have been a lot more friendlier though... :P

The next thing is envelope help. I'm going to be sending out 4x6 photos but want to use a much smaller envelope. I have an envelope that can fit the photos. Now I just need one that will fit the photos and fit inside my envelope... Any sizes?

SORRY IF THIS SOUNDS CONFUSING! ITS BEEN A VERY LONG DAY AT WORK... :(

Where's it headed? It sounds expensive if it is to another city in the USA. (Sometime new people at the post office put 6x9s in as a large envelope instead of regular). For international mail this sounds accurate.

The 4x6 photos which there are 3 of are being sent in a 6x9 envelope to Beverly Hills, CA... She wasn't the nicest. Should have told her I'll just use the email. What a reaction I would have gotten out of her. Didn't buy the stamps because it seemed to pricey for the time.

Really? Wow! She did weigh it... But it fits in the category as one of the cheapest envelopes according to the USPS site and at the most shouldnt cost more then $1.50... I'm going back soon. Hope its a different person. Not a great way to start my ttm collecting! I've done email collecting so far... Thanks for your advice!
