  • Hi,

    You wrote "make sure it is address to Sweden..." I used to work for RM too, surely it shouldnt have a real country on, as as soon as thats scanned in, off it goes to that country.

    Just write "to santa" or somethign, including a county on it will just ensure that it arrives at that country, and probably baffle them somewhat...

    The Post Office have been doing this for years. My kids started writing to Santa back in 1983 and always, always received a letter back from Santa. There letters were sent with either no stamps or Green Shield/Co-op stamps.

    Perhaps it's 'not widely advertised' because if it was there would be such a huge demand that they would then have to start charging - as it is they can deal with the number of letters to Santa that they have.
  • I have done this the last 3 years with DD

    you dont need to put a stamp on the envelope and just address it to santa/father christmas/north pole etc
