Got My Postcards

Several weeks ago, I blogged about a new website I found that printed postcards and letters for you, and mailed them out for you, too. I thought it was a terrific tool for travelers who are either unable to afford or obtain stamps where they travel, or who don’t want to go through the hassle of choosing postcards, getting stamps, addressing the cards, etc. The site is called Postful.com. The whole idea behind it was very intriguing to me, so I got some postcards and gave it a try.

This is cool!

I sent out cards to my four kids (they love getting their own mail), and it took about 10 days for it to arrive in the mailbox. As you can see, there is plenty of room in the message box area for correspondence. The stamps are very cute, too. The kids are keeping their postcards as keepsakes.

Postful allows you to customize your postcards and letters. I uploaded my photos, typed in my message and the addresses, and that was that. Postful accepts payment through PayPal. I don’t think correspondence can get any easier. It’s nice because everything is done online. I think it’s perfect for the traveler. I love getting postcards and therefore I try to send them when I travel. I give Postful a thumbs up!

    that sounds perfect for people like me that SUCK at getting organized enough to get things in the mail… will have to see if it works for Canada, or if it’s US only.

    Even so, it might be useful, though.

    I just had a look at it and it looks really great. Unfortunately I am in the UK and at the moment it is US only. Hopefully they may expand in the future.
