No Postage Increase Extravaganza!! USA only

Swap categories: Letters & Writing  Postcards 
Number of people in swap:52

Last day to signup/drop:May 24, 2010
Date items must be sent by:June 4, 2010
Number of swap partners:5
Description:

A year ago last week, the US postage rates increased, and the US postal service promised that they would continue to increase every year. But in 2010, we've seen no increase.

I think that's something to celebrate. I was happy when I found out.

Requirements are as follows:

  1. You have 5 partners.
  2. You will send one naked postcard to each partner, so you're sending 5 cards in all.
  3. You can write anything on the cards! You can do anything to these cards! Have fun with these, go crazy! If you don't have anything to say, then talk about what you're going to do with all the money you're not spending on extra postage!
  4. Noobs allowed. I can angel if need be. But I hope there won't be any need.
  5. USA only. Sorry, international friends.

Can these be handmade or do they need to be store bought? I will check back :)

They can be handmade, but they have to be more than a printed image. you know what I mean?

I'd love a handmade, and THANK YOU for a USA only. $1 is ridiculous to send a PC overseas.

I didn't know you can print an image on the handmade one's... I always write on them and decorate them with stickers would that be ok?

@kymomto5 That's fine :) Thanks for signing up!

@worldtraveler you're welcome :)

I just wanted to let you handmade card people know that handmade cards don't do well "naked" in the mail. I've had a couple of failures with these. PCs that didn't get to where they are going. I would like to suggest that any homemade PCs should not be sent naked and should be in an envelope. Just a thought.

You can put those handmade cards in see thru envies but the po will charge you and additional 20 cents to send.

@brittanyzick -- if you get me, you can feel more than welcome to break some bad news to me ;o)
