Postage?

What has everyone else used for their postage?  I was looking into Zazzle.com, has anyone else used this site?

I would like to get nice stamps for both STDs and Invites without breaking the bank! Any info you all have on postage would really help, thanks!

    The best way to save money on postage is to design/order an invitation that only takes one first class stamp to mail!

    We used "Love" forever stamps purchased directly from the USPS.com. Using the Forever stamps insured that we wouldn't have to deal with any postage increase issues.

    TBH no one cares about the stamps.  My husband made me crazy looking for Pixar stamps.  It took 5 trips to 3 post ofices to get enough because it's what he wanted.  Do you think anyone even noticed?  Nope.  Use the regular wedding ones rom the USPS.

    I agree, no one will notice. I used whatever the wedding stamps were that were offered by the post office at the time, because I needed more postage than a regular forever stamp.

    [QUOTE]A few more postage tips .... Take your assembled invitation (with any inserts, inner envelopes, etc) to a post office to have it weighed.  Also, the price of a Forever stamp will go up in late January by one cent / stamp.  It doesnt' seem like much, but take into consideration the postage for thank you notes for showers, the wedding itself, and save-the-dates.  Ditto what PPs said about nobody caring about the postage.  I originally weighed mine (packaged and everything) and it said I only needed a Forever stamp, but somehow when I went to mail them, it said I needed $.20 more.  I got the George Washington ones, had a brief panic because I didn't want GW next to the lovely white roses, then realized that nobody will notice (and they didn't).

    </div><div>So since stamps are going up at end of January, if we buy Forever stamps now to mail invites in, let's say, March, they will still work fine and will not require extra postage?</div>

    I used Zazzle. It's not the cheapest thing, but I really liked the way my invitations turned out. My mom noticed the stamps. :) We used custom stamps for the invitation and also for the RSVP envelope. We used regular postcard stamps for our STDs.
