    I will gladly pay postage to anyone that got mine and had to pay. This is what I was told: I took mine to the post office and she weighed and put it through their little slot card and said they were fine at 45 cents in the US, I did not put the stamps on, she stamped them. She said the directive from the PO that they get is that it is strickly a judgment call anymore. If it comes stamped from another PO it has been okayed by them and that no due postage is ever charged. If you, meaning us, puts a regular stamp on them and just mails them, then it is the judgment call on the receiving PO as the whether postage is due or not. This lady is the postmaster here and says she hates it because no 2 people can ever be the same every single time. Hope this makes sense of what I'm trying to say, anyway I will send the extra postage if you just let me know.

    I agree with you. In fact I think it's BS all post offices should have the same rules and not make up there own as they see fit. I take mine to the post office she or he puts the stamp on they check every package and weigh and they put 45 cent stamp on. And I'm sorry if anyone has to pay extra for me just let me know and I will send it back with your block.

    There was only two times I had to pay extra. And this makes my 3 boomerang swap. So with those odds I'm ok having to pay the 20 cents if needed.

    But money is tight for me and I'm only going to pay what the post office says I owe.

Does that make sense to anyone else or is it just me and my twisted logic?

    LOL I like your way of thinking make them count those pennies and see if the next time if they just let it slide.

    It is almost a game to them to see how many they can catch, last time I had to pay I had a pocket full of pennies, So if they want to play I can add my spin to the game.

    So I don't forget Nexxus, Happy Birthday this coming weekend. I do not usually get on the computer during the weekend because so busy quilting and such, so thought I better say it early.
