I think I might do it too.....BEWARE the postage in the US goes up an additional 1 cent on May 12th.

Anybody know if you can do this in Canada too? The only place I can find it is on the Canada Post website & it seems kinda expensive!! (24 bucks for 20 stamps)

I just posted this on another thread, but thought I would add it here. If you order personalized stamps make sure when the post office weighs your invitation that they also check the size of the envelope in case there is extra postage needed. We ordered stamps from stamps.com based on what the post office quoted my FI, but they only weighed the envelope. I found out we we needed more postage when I went to drop off the invitations to be mailed and had to purchase .41 stamps to add on. I wasn't too pleased to say the least since I wouldn't have ordered special stamps if I didn't care what the postage looked like so just thought I would share so no one else has the same issue. I really liked my stamps from stamps.com though and they came pretty quick. I just really hate the post office now!

Yeah.... I went and MADE absolute sure that they weighed and measured the envelope and it turns out that they were cheaper than I was originally quoted from another post office... YAY!!! I just ordered my stamps tonight from USPS.com and it was $80 for 160 stamps ($0.59 outer envelope and $0.42 for RSVP)....

I ordered custom stamps from Zazzle custom t-shirts and more, create or shop for unique designs shipped in 24 hours They have some designs on there if you do a search for postage stamps... or more specific beach postage stamps, etc. Or you can put any picture you want on them- simply upload it from your computer and you can add text. That's what I did. It was really easy and EVERYONE noticed them! yay They are a little big tho- I ordered the medium size. They would be too big for a reply card, but they have a smaller size to choose from. Also, they ship UPS so you can choose how long it takes.

Sorry the pics aren't very clear...

Outer Envelope... Just the simple wedding stamp

 

RSVP Envelope

I've also used Zazzle before and was thrilled with the stamps I got, but it wound up making the postage about double the normal price. it was worth it for what was doing (40th bday party) and now I have other places to check too. thanks!

I didn't know about the Costco discount on the custom stamps! Thanks! I know I could use them for other things in the future.
