I get cute stamps but also use a stamper (rubber stamps and ink) to decorate the envelope with. Some pals cant have stickers so this way they can have the cute stuff too

I cheat because I got a scales for weighing letters and always know exactly how much I have to put on them. I also buy stamps in bulk to save trips to the Post Office but I dont search out fancy stamps I just take what comes along.
What I used to do when I had the right type of printer was cut and paste art designs and ecard designs and print them onto the one side of the envelopes so they were always colourful and always different. Alas then I changed printers and now just put that type of thing into the letters I write - guess I'm getting lazy in my old age ah LOL

Yeah, I have a scale too... But I have different stamps with different postage, so I'm always combining different stamps to get the right postage on the envelope :-)

No fancy envelopes anymore? I guess I started out being lazy, just bought envelopes in all colours of the rainbow and send those :-)

The line at my post office usually takes, literally, at least twenty minutes to sit through, so I use those handy little stamp-vending machines.

Curses to the US stamp hike, by the way. I don't mind paying two more cents a letter, but I do mind having to go wait in the line to buy two-cent stamps. I'll probably be lazy and just stick two of the thirty-seven cent stamps on there instead.

Lots of places sell those types of scales but they are rather expensive. I got mine from a store called Office World. Wouldn't be without it now (smile)
