    So you could always start doing it online then and printing your postage :) its done to make life easier!

    Until the day the printer decides that, say, the blue cartridge isn't working and you have just paid for a sheet of pink second class stamps. That's what puts me off. Or you print the stamp and have nothing to stick it on with. My printer hates envelopes.

  • What's wrong with Pink? :D

    You can always use sellotape to put over the stamps on the envelope, and when your ink is running low you get faded lines long before it runs out :)

    Lets be honest though, for someone sending 30 xmas cards its going to be easier than qeuing and doing them all one by one in the post office!
