uhhhtohhh RSVP stamp problem....what did you do??

I got regular stamps. It's all preference and if you didn't know about first class stamps, it was probably not a huge deal. I would just let it be.

Nevermind i looked it up im 100% sure the stamps i bought ARE in fact 1st class! so my sister is just royally confusing me & not making me look dumb LOL....what else are sisters for!? haha

45 cent stamps are first class stamps, I think. You're fine, my friend did post cards with regular stamps, and has been getting her RSVPs without a problem.

I would go to another post office and get a second opinion about the postage. It doesn't make sense to me that you should have to pay full price for a postcard unless it's an odd size or shape.

One post office weighed and metered our invitations at .84. Another post office weighed and metered them at .64. Always good to get a second opinion!!!

The forever stamps are first class. Your sister is nuts.

I agree with Kris on checking not only the rsvps twice but your invites also. I had mine checked before I addressed all of them and then right before I mailed them I had them checked again at a different post office. THEN I stamped them and sent them out. The last thing you want is to end up with a bunch or returned invites with writing all over them.

Regular stamps are first class.

LOL I know that @2nd Bride...she just put me into a semi 2 min panic!

So vertic is Im good! haha

Was your postcard to heavy or thick? My stamps were 28 cents each for my postcard RSVP..

Its cardstock so i'd say its heavier then a typical postcard yes, so she said itd be the norm stamps like id use for a letter which is fine

As long as your postcard is not square, and is less than 4 inches in height, and less than 6 wide, it should be the standard postcard postage, now 35 cents, I think?? They have Aloha Shirts on them.

As for the First Class vs. Forever stamps, it does not matter for mailing them. The forever stamps are made so that you can purchase them at the increased rate BEFORE the rate increase, which already took place. They should be fine/they ARE first class postage.

Here is where you can find info about the postcard dimensions

I also did RSVP postcards, BTW they worked awesome more people sent theirs back in because they didn’t have to do the extra work of putting it in a little envelope and sealing it.

But I only paid 35 cents for the post card stamps.

Its a 10 cents difference but it adds up

I bought my rsvp postcard stamps through zazzle. i really didnt want the 35 cent aloha shirts. But, after spending the extra money on the 35 cent zazzle stamps, I might as well have bought the 45 cent stamps.

I didnt read the other comments, but there is nothing wrong with those stamps. I used them for both my Save The Dates and wedding invites/RSVPs

Im laughing now bc my parents got a "post card" STD and it had the aloha tee on it I thought to myself how odd, why didn't they pick a "wedding theme" stamp...lol....now I know thats 35 cents LOL

I did the 45 cent ones with the forever and 2 white roses on the rsvp post card

i sent out the 1st batch of invites during lunch & bought enough stamps for the rest, theyre the wedding cake; 65 cents! cute though

We used the wedding cake stamps too!

For our RSVPs we used the bonsai stamps. The colors are so pretty!

I have a mild obsession with stationery and the post office.

I've already giggled over the aloha postcard stamps. I used them because I couldn't afford custom ones and didn't want to spend the extra 10 cents for first class letters. Oh well.

I dont blame you Merfy Lou...if everyone is smarter then I am they will know its due to the cost of the postcard stamp lol. my "post cards" are 3 peices of 80 lb card stock spray glued together so they are technically NOT a postcard and weight more then one so i had to go with the 45 centers. which i dont mind, had they been able to use the 35 n i messed up and bought 45 id be a little ticked

They totally make post card stamps! I buy them all the time, I have a jewelry business and use them to send out invitations, thank yous, info, etc.....
