STD question

Soooo, I'm doing photo postcard save the dates (making my own on shutterfly). Anyone have experience with the quality?

I'm worried about the card being damaged by being run thru the machine at the post office (ugh, that was for you Ro! LOL...I remember your post office story)

Am I doing too much with worrying the card will be messed up? I'm sure it will be fine, I think I'm just on 100 right now....*le sigh*

Re: STD question

  • Everything I have ordered from shutterfly I have loved! But I have not ordered their post cards (then why am I speaking? LOL)

    I must say though all the "postcard" photo cards that I received in the mail for Christmas were in an envelope. I am guessing you don't want to put them in an envelope? 

    But they were all fine and didn't look mangled. 

    And yes, I will never look at the post office the same again...like never!

    Right, I didn't want to put them in an envelope to save on postage so I was thinking of just stamping the back of the postcard. Should I put in an envelope? Am I being cheap? LOL!

    how come we can't just put a postcard rate stamp on each one?  they hafta be machine run?  

    um and no @ cheap.  the lady at my post office said rates are going up another cent for first class by a penny - on January 26th.   snicker if you wanna but thas a solid dolla! (tm Jai) lol!

    <div>I don't know much about post cards so hopefully one of the other ladies chime. It would seem like they wouldn't need to be run through a machine so you might just want to ask your post office. And I would think if they do need to be run through a machine, doing a matte versus glossy photo card would be a bit more forgiving to some "roughness" </div><div>
    </div><div>And no you are not being cheap, every penny saved is a great thing! what they do with them STDs after anyways? well I keep all the ones that I receive but I bet most don't. </div>

  • I don't think you are being cheap and I'm sure they shouldn't get damaged at the post office but you may want to consult with Shutterfly and see what do they suggest

  • I don't think you are being cheap.. I did post cards too but i ordered envelops with mines, thats only because i'm funny about people reading my stuff. LOL.. also another reason, i did was because i didn't want my post card that I paid good money for to be placed with the junk mail like advertisements,  and no one ever read it.. You know... Do you know someone that has an office job that you can give some of your STD to them to mail for you.. that's what i did. my friend mailed mines for me through her job..
