This was a very neat idea. Sorry, I couldn't find postcards from our area, but I did improvise.

Martin, that's NOT funny!!! I'm really worried about it! I think they all have extra postage, just to be safe. LOL

Thank you for all your help, you're a sweetie!

You'll all be getting them soon. :-)

You will all be getting expensive postage stamps from Kelly...LOL! Just dropped my "International" cards off at the post office. What's weird, is that the one's to Bonaire were the same postage as here, 37 cents...go figure...you Canadians and Europeans cost me an arm and a leg (just kidding...hee hee) <wink>

Postage for me was $.50 to Canada; $.70 for UK, Netherlands and Bonaire; and just $.24 for my US BT friends. Hope you enjoy them. We certainly are enjoying being on the receiving end! :-)

We got our first postcard down here in Bonaire a couple days ago. We are decorating our tree with them. We sent out ours yesterday. Postage was half price compared to cards. Thanks for a great idea!

Linda

Cynde, mine to Bonaire (postcards, not cards) were .70 --- I hope you got the right information for that!

I am so loving getting all these postcards, I love your idea Linda of decorating the tree with them too.

Kelly,you, Aquaman and Bubbles know that I never carry any money, and am cheap if I can get away with it...LOL!

I thought it was weird too (that it was only 37 cents). I went to the mail boxes etc. place by work, number one, she couldn't even find Boniare, let alone Curacao or Aruba on her list. Then she found a list for St. Thomas, and the caribbean islands....Linda, you and yours and Annie and Mags may get a COD card...LOL! Sorry!

Sounds like she found the answer for the US Virgin islands which is a territory and therefore the same price as US domestic postage.

I don't know what they will do if it is low on postage. They may send it to the Virgin Island first. Once our mail ended up in Virga Gorda which is British. Recently we got an envelope sent in August via Namibia.
