Did You Pay Extra Postage to Get My Card?


Myrna wrote: When I took Kirsten's birthday card to the mail, I was worried that I was too late for the mail to go out for that day. Therefore, I went to the window. She said it would make it just fine. Then she said, "Oh, wait, it feels a little heavy." She weighed it and it was 1/10th of an ounce over the allowed weight. I had to pay more postage. I asked what happened if such a card was just mailed by being placed right in the box. She said that those were usually delivered with postage due and the receiver had to pay the difference.

So, my question is, did you have to pay "postage due" on the card you received? The two cards were the same size and had the same contents.

What about the rest of you, have you also had to pay extra postage? What about your anniversary card, David? It was also about the same size.

Love, M

Thanks for the money. I haven't had time to mail out my thank you cards. I did buy some new pajamas with the money. I like pajamas. I think I have become the pajama queen. In this economy it pays to have nice, warm, comfy pajamas.

Love you.

I am glad you got PJs. That is what I got for myself the other day. I bought a couple of pairs of thermal pajamas. Now I am as warm as fresh toast.

Melanie, I appreciate your reply. I love my girl! M
