    I think £6 is still a bit too expensive. I buy mine from ebay. £3.60 for 100. Item number 400108787800. They're quite pretty too.

    How do you guys ensure that your address is seperate from the address you're sending to whern putting both addresses on the same side of the card?

    I use blank on both side cards, where I've printed my details on one side, and a section for writing in the address I am sending to on the other
    (I put "Post code - Address this side please" on one side, and "Return address and senders' details" on the other.

    Turn the postcard, so the address TO is horizontal, then turn the postcard vertical and put your address that way IYSWIM? Hard to explain. I think PPD explains it on the first page :D Still, I have had a few boomerang postcards so doesn't always work xx

    Well, on the postcards I have, it's split in half, with lines on the right hand side, and a little box on top right for stamp, then on left it's blank. I use the lines to write the address of competition, then use blank space for my own details. I always turn it 90 degrees clockwise though and then write my details. I think this is what sweetiepie means.

    I've just bought those as well :T I've only been doing this for about a month and have won a Koala but I am addicted and if I lose the bug I can re-sell them

    They are really good quality as well. Well done, bargain!

    Amazon is good for postcards too. I have bought a couple of books from there and they are quite often on offer. Got some lovely Peter Rabbit ones which are extra large too so hoping they will be more likely to get picked out :)
