Hi ladies, isn’t this fun!
This posting is regarding the sending of international postage from America to Australia, but it may apply to the other international participants.
My screen name is Liesje, and I'm from Australia. I have just come back from the post office and had a long discussion with the "Man" in charge. All we can do from Australia is buy American Postage Coupons, which Debbie, Clara and team would then have to take into the post office at their end to exchange for postage stamps, as we can not buy the stamps here. This will mean a lot of extra work on their part. The postmaster suggests that the Australian ladies put between AU$20-$25 worth of coupons into the package for up to half a kilo weight. This is roughly 560 triangles in 20 small separate bags, a lager plastic ziplock bag and a Tough Bag size B2 post paks. This post pack would get the HST to America and Debbie and Clara would then organise an International Flat Rate boxes which can be sent to Australia. The U.S. cost is $13.95 for the smallest size box (sized 8-1/2" x 5-1/2" x 1-1/2") or 12-1/2" x 9" envelopes.
The coupons in Australia are for letters and my post office suggests that I order them from him as they do not keep that many in stock, and it will take a few days for the Post office to get them in.
So ladies don't forget to put your POSTAGE COUPONS and your PREPRINTED LABELin with your post pack.
If anyone knows of another way please let us know.
all the best
Elizabeth in Mentone, Victoria, Australia
