Insufficient postage

Did anyone else get an insufficient postage card through their door today?

It was only for £1.52 but the post office is miles away and I really don't want to go wasting money on bus fares (and returns!) for no reason. :(

The only thing that I know I'm waiting for is a hand crafted chocolate bar from the Foodnetwork advent comp. Did anyone else waiting for that get them today?

    If you ring your local depot they will also tell you if it has a return address on it so that you may be able to work out if it is worth paying the extra postage.

    I got two today. One for unpaid postage (mines £1.58) and another a special delivery letter. Will let you know what it is tomorrow as will be collecting.

    PS/ Im not happy to pay £1.58 for something that is probably junk but too nosey not to.

    Must be the day for it!! I also got notification of unpaid postage today of £1.58 parcel was addressed to one of kiddlies, but my local office has stupid opening times as four days a week they are only open until 1.30pm, and am in and out all day so always miss the postie anyway.
