Mailing magnets

I wanted to try STD cards that are magnets but my thought is, won't they get stuck to the inside of the mailbox?  Maybe I'm a dope, but I'm worried that they'll be stuck inside until the year 2156.

    I just put mine in envelopes I got from staples, I shoulda put cardboard so they didn't bend but I was lucky out of 75 only 1 got ruined lol all the others were perfect at least I didn't hear complaints.

    We didn't have any problems with that. I also put a card in with the magnets about hotel accomodations, so I think that helped.

    i had about 2 of my 75 STDs get lost in the mail... i wonder if they got stuck somewhere.  the others made it fine, so i assume the magnets aren't that stong.

    Don't put them in the mailbox. Bring them right to the post office. But I really doubt it would be a problem.

    I ordered mine from magnetstreet.com and they came with lined envelopes. They all made it where they were supposed to!

    I actually had issues with  mine sticking to each other in the mailbox when they were being sent out, and some people got their STD with someone else's stuck to it.  It was annoying, had to track down who got them, who didn't, and send new ones out.

    We did magnets and there were no problems that I know of. We ordered from magnetstreet.com and they came with a carrier card and a lined envelope so there was a couple of layers in between the magnet and the mailbox...not sure if that makes that big of a difference though. I'm sure you'll be fine!
