I don't think they are money hungry, if you think about it, you get a really good deal for your money.
Mailing a letter, or postcard to anywhere in the US ...think about all the planes and trucks and people that send it on it's way...

I don't need to think about it, I know. Believe me all the profits line the supervisors pockets.

So does that mean I need to add a 2 cent stamp on to my pre-stamped postcards? I just bought 200 yesterday and the lady didn't say anything about the increase to me.

yeh, but look how long it takes them to get the postcard, letter, so on where it is suppose to be going. Thats why it is referred to as the snail mail.
I've had too many bad experiences with the post office lately so any price hike seems unfair to me.

I'm not coming to a Disney park this year / I already left and want to still enter!
Disney's already thought of you too! Simply send a 3.5 x 5 postcard complete with name, address, daytime phone#, birth date and proper postage and send it to: PO Box 8629, Elmhurst, IL 60126.

Yes you will have to buy a 2 cent stamp and put it on. I still have a bunch of 37 cent stamps that are disney. I didn't know about the last increase when I bought them.

Oh man...you aren't going to believe this -- I just went and counted the prestamped postcards I have ready to mail and I have *exactly* enough to send before the rate goes up. Hey, maybe I am a winner afterall! :teeth:

According to the official rules, you're supposed to be limited to one entry per person each day... but I don't know if they actually check the incoming mail. I usually send in one for DH and one for me every day (when I remember to drop them in the mailbox ;) )

I can't believe it. We just bought 100 on Monday! I'm just going to double up (from 2 to 4) my entries!
