As often as possible I use discounted postage stamps on my sales parcels.
There have been several sellers of these on here or I use a stamp dealer.
Some of the stamps are too good to just stick on any old parcel. Recently I sold a pattern book to an Australian so I used one of these stamps...
Lol. Rub it in they always do.......
All the best

I hadn't thought about searching for older stamps, which may sell for less than face value (if that's what you mean by discount). The UK has some really pretty stamps, tho I'll admit I find other countries often have more interesting and colorful variety. I used to collect world stamps. Started when I was little. When I started adulting, I would buy the prettiest stamps they had, as it made it feel like I was sending a little work of art with each letter or bill.
Can't believe this question! (Enjoy the party!!) ;)Quote:

MPS... it's only a joke...
Any excuse for a party is a good one! I didn't think the post was a joke....tho I was not sure about what madelaine termed discounted stamps. If I have a selection of stamps on hand, I'll do like madelaine, and pick the ones that best match the purpose of the mailing. You have to enjoy the little things in life to be happy.Quote:
