Stamp amount?

Unread post by missmaexox »

Okay, usually I'm good at this stuff, but I need help because I almost ALWAYS send 4x6 photos in a regular envelope.

How many stamps would I need on this envelope?
-6x8 envelope (I believe, around that size)
-8x10 SASE folded in half
-5x7 photo
-Letter folded in half
-Q&A

And how many on the SASE?
-8x10 envelope
-2 photos (this person sends photos)
-Q&A (if it's sent back)

I need the right amount!
I don't want it lost in the mail, haha.

For the 9x12 envelope you need to put on two .42 cent stamps. for the 6x9 you need to put a total of .53 cents on that since your including photos, letter and Q&A. {thumb2}

I am assuming you are in the US sending to another address in the US.

I would put $1 on the SASE, instead of .83. The two stamps covers one ounce. Two photos might weigh more than one ounce.

As for your other envelope: It would need at least .59 but you could put 0.76 to be on the safe side. (.59 covers two ounces, .76 covers up to three)

Hope that helped. {up}

If you are unsure at anytime you should feel free to bring your package/envelope to your local post office and ask them the weight of it. They will tell you and it'll help in finding out how much postage you will need to put on it. :)

Best of luck! {up}
