UGH!!! That is all I have to say about the post offfice. I finally finished my DIY invites and took one to be weighed at the post office. And guess what??? They have new rules regarding pockets. I was planning on mailing them out in three weeks but due to the additional cost they are hitting mail boxes by next friday. What are the new rules you ask...
1. Stamp prices are going up
2. Pocket thickness has changed (less room than before)
3. 4 bar rsvp sizes need to right on otherwise, you guessed it! They will be charging you more now.
4. Invites need to be bendable or they will be considered ridged and an extra cost will be added.
5. Additional cost for plastic slip covers. I don't know if this is a new rule or not but just thought I would mention it.
Total cost $0.87 (my invites were 2.5 oz) If I would have waited the cost would have been $1.75! I saved almost a $1.00 per invite! Crazy! I will have pictures next week!
