I try to keep it as cheap as possible.
My boss gave me a free box of 200 envelopes approx size 5x7.
I only send out 5x7 photos. Walmart prints 5x7s for 58 cents.
I don't send out 8x10s because they cost more(i.e. larger envelopes, more postage, etc.)
I keep the letter weight under 1 ounce.
I don't use heavy, stiff cardboard. I use light-weight, flexible cardboard.
I only use one stamp to send and one stamp for the SASE. 44 + 44= 88 cents
Approx. $1.50 per celebrity
If I write 10 celebrities a month, it costs me approx. $15.00 a month for 10 autographs.
