Can I use stamps or do I have to use First Class Postage?

Unread post by dropthegigawatt »

About to send out my first few requests! It looks like most people on here just put plain ol' Forever stamps on their envelopes. But, according to USPS's website, 8x10 envelopes aren't covered by stamps, you have to print and tape postage on...

So, what's up? Are the people I see in these forums using smaller envelopes? Or does the mailman just not care?

Neither, you're just making **** up.

Any package, be it box or envelope, within the PO's standard sizing limits can be sent with postage stamps as long as it's under 13oz.

Even beyond 13 oz, it gets fuzzy as to whether or not you can still use stamps if you mail it from the retail counter at the PO.

There's a difference between blue text & a URL, ****. Those who can't read will be added to my ignore list.

Awww, how cute. Someone who thinks that people will be dumb enough to believe that they're me, despite the blatant period & completely different post numbers.

And, of course, the obvious fact that if, if it were me, I would've edited the post, not replied to it. Not to mention it's not necessarily true that "nobody but her will know why she signed it twice" & I'm smart enough to know that.

Not to mention the grammatical mistakes.

But, please, carry on. You can help me find more people to add to my ignore list. I don't need to be bothered reading posts by users that are stupid enough to believe that these 2 accounts are the same. I appreciate the help in weeding out the ****. So thank you. :D

I have never heard about having to use the po printed stuckers. That sounds crazy!

You would need to research how much it will cost but as long as you put enough stamps on it, you can mail it from home (as long as its under 13oz).

You can mail it from home regardless--they're asking if they have to print a label or not.
