just a quick question
new to this
If a company has many comps going on but requires a postcard for each, can I send multiply enteries (1 for each comp) in an envolope to the main address, therefore saving on stamps
thanks

I always do. Have won some too. It depends what it states in the Terms and Conditions really. Some companies want them separate. Hope that helps.0 -

Where do you get cheap postcards from?
Get them for free at museums and art galleries, bars, etc, and...
This is all, or mostly, copied from another MSEr's reply to a request from me. I think that it was DUKE, but I'm not sure.
[FONT="]I don't know if they still do, but fitness first gyms used to have a display in each club free of free postcards with all sorts of designs on, I know london have a few gyms, so if you know any members you could ask them to look for you? Hope that may help get you some[/FONT]
[FONT="]have a look when you are in any shops as they may be advertising etc[/FONT]
[FONT="]Try odeon cinemas
as said fitness first
you could also make your own from old cards etc
some tk maxx stores have beside the till[/FONT]
[FONT="]O'Briens Coffee Shops might have
showcase cinemas
oasis stores [/FONT]
[FONT="]some coffee bars
Cineworld cinema
Habitat
H & M stores
Slug and Lettuce pubs
sometimes in Starbucks[/FONT]
Keep an eye out wherever there are flyers (eg, record shops) - I've used many as postcards, even if they were never designed as such.
Once you start looking you can find loads!
HTH!!

im sure it was me who gave u that info rrickyuk:p
Sorry - I can never remember who I get info off - must remember to make a record.
:doh:
That info you gave was way useful, and got me thinking about where else to try - I often pick up a wadge of them. I try to slip them into a mag or something.
As if anyone watching wouldn't have noticed!
Got so many now there's no space left in the holder I use! :beer::beer::beer:Al Mac Appreciation Society No. 188
