    I didn't go to the PO but I put 2 reg stamps and 1 20cent stamp on it or 1.08. I heard from others that would work.

    I think the people at the PO are nuts. It also depends on how you package it.

    i have 2 PO within 10 minutes of my house - one always charges less then the other - the difference is one measures the entire package and enters that into the computer along with the zip codes - the other just weighs and enters zip codes.

    the place that just weighs and enters zip codes is always cheaper

    yes mine just weight and zip code i found by pressing my f8 really good that they only cost a single stamp to mail last time it was .61 ea because i just folded and did not press so it had to be hand stamped.

    My husband works for PO if the envelope fits through a slot they use its ok for 64 cents,,,I am not sure how you would get away with 1 stamp.,..because it goes my weight and it has to weigh at least one ounce unless fabric is really thin. My advise is to be careful or the recipient may have to pay the difference for you if you are short. My husband has to collect from people alot. I ironed mine very flat and it still made it barely through the slot... so it cost me 64 cents but the po both of them I went to said it could have very easily been 88 cents..So please think twice before sending with one stamp. I also sent mine today to everyone including canadas and australia
    This will be fun cant wait to see everyones fabrics.

    Wow - and I took mine to the PO, and mine told me that if it fit through the slot it was one stamp.

    Anyway - if I owe anyone money for postage due, just let me know. I just did what my PO said was OK.
