I am now on the lookout for this one too! We should have a wee competition to see who can find it first - little amuses the innocent! :rotfl: :rotfl:

Or we could take a slightly different track and monitor the number of times a particular smart comes back to us....

I often see smarts returned to me that I think I may have sent out to others!

I currently have two Smarts which are the same letters just in a different order. Thought that was quite interesting when I noticed it.

I got a SMART the other day and it was labelled FGLY. :rotfl:

It did make me giggle for quite a while. Unfortunately I have to post it out to someone next week, I wanted to keep it!

Been in hospital for a few days and didn't get to post some stuff. Up to now I've always been getting 3-5 items a week, but the past 2 weeks there has only been 1. Coincidence?

I received my second set of training envelopes to post today.

To Judi and other new participants - you'll get about 7 weeks of "training" envelopes which is incredibly boring. 1 set of stamps with the first pack.

In week 9 or so you'll get another set of 1st class stamps and a commemorative collectors' set of stamps, and then it gets interesting. You won't find out what a SMART is until then. I also spent most of April and May wondering what on earth a SMART was but it suddenly became clear as soon as I started properly..

1 I thought there was only only set of stamps during training, those received at the start. It was only when I started posting "for real" that more stamps arrived. Perhaps they have changed things since then.

2 Similarly I thought the commemorative stamps tended to be more random, like the Easter chocolate bunnies, not everyone receives them.

3 Knowing what SMARTs are is like knowing what an orgasm is - you know it when you experience it!

Hi

No, you shouldn't have to pay anything as all the envelopes/packets/boxes are stamped.:)

to add: the only things panelists need to provide are pens (to handwrite addresses) and sticky tape (to seal up the small boxes)

Shouldn't is the definitive word. I actually got a test item including the SMART but unstamped (and in a packet type that I've never seen before). I had to pay £2.10 to get it delivered mainly because I'd a few things outstanding from EBay and assumed it was one of those. Grrr
