Warning... wedding stamps are friggin' hard to come by!!

I had to call about 6 post offices before I finally found a post office that has the .63 cent stamps and the .39 cent ones in stock! I'm late with my invites as it is, people... DON'T MESS WITH ME!!

Oh... and apparently it's gonna cost me about .87 to mail my invites. Guess what's on the .87 cent stamp? Some old, ugly dude! Yeah... THAT'S what I want on my invitation! So, instead I'm sucking up the extra .15 cents per invite to put the two wedding stamps on so it looks pretty. PLUS the extra RSVP postcard inside is too big for a postcard sized stamp, so THAT'S .39. 1.42 total for postage alone!!

sooooo close to mailing them out! I just don't have the entire finished product yet!!! (just the RSVP cards and the envelopes... the rest are being mailed to me tomorrow!)

Sorry that you are going through all of this trying to locate the wedding stamps. I ordered them all online and had them within 3 days...why don't you check out the post office online - maybe they have different $.87 cent stamps you can choose from

I just gave away 4 packs of those sets! My MIL bought too many and said to do whatever, I got tired of using them for bills since half of each pack was 63 cents.

My best friend had the same problem back in March, we must've called 10 different post offices, it was not fun.
