Free stamps!!

I know this may sound obvious and it is. I have just had a clear out of / filed away all my letters / statements etc. The shredder has packed in under protest.

I now have a collection of unused stamps from reply envelopes which I have steamed off with the kettle (very carefully of course). Including one from my very expensive accountant. A small piece of cellotape will do to secure it onto your envelope.

It was awful kind of those people to donate some stamps worth nearly £2!

But, as we all know, when you need a stamp and you're in a rush, can you find one? I now have them in my wallet in the little side pocket. It may save more in time than actual money.

Just a thought!

if you use cellotape over a stamp it stops them being valid,

tecnically if you take na unused stamp off an envelope you should send them back to rayal mail to be exchanged for new ones,

but sticking them on with glue will do the trick.

If you stick cellotape on a stamp technically the stamp is classed as inside the packet and unable to be counted as postage. Also reusing stamps is theft, I forgot the act wording but its something like peculiar advantage or something

i just stick it in water to float it off the paper then use pritstick glue

I read it that these are unused stamps put on a reply envelope.
They haven't been used, so I don't think it's theft.

problem is if they are taped down and look pre used they can be flagged up and will be charged to the sender at cost of postage +£1
plenty get caught doing it(even though here its unused stamps)
