    Maybe you made a small mistake or maybe they are sending out different offers to different people but our email today was for $119 with a $25 AMEX gift card.

    sorry my mistake.. it was 25

    I have been away many times and not sent a postcard, but as we are getting married out there and its only the 2 of us and we are away for close to 3 weeks thought it would be a nice touch to the close family members who cannot come. If it takes 5 weeks so be it :D And our wedding party invites (when we get back) are postcards too. GF was a graphic designer and they look really good if i say so myself ;) so it will all tie in.

    Who would you tell that you sent postcards? Only the people you sent them to would know.

    We haven't sent postcard in moons.

    I think you can get stamps from some of the hotel shops, or it may be from a machine located near the shops. Failing that, the business centre as already suggested.
