To trim or not to trim USPS postcards? lol

[Disneyglobegirl]

For those that have bought the prestamped post cards at the post office are you trimming the extra 1/2" off to make the card 3.5 x 5 or are you just sending them in as is 3.5 x 5.5?

Also is it one entry per day per address or per person?

Thank You!!

I haven't been trimming it, and I've read that some of the people that won here didn't either.

I just heard that it was one per person.

There have been several people that won using the USPS postcards "as is" -- so I wouldn't worry about trimming them.

Also, from what we've been reading, the rules state one entry per person, per day, but I don't think they are enforcing it as many people have won that sent their cards in batches.

Thank you I won't trim them then - lol

I have been filling out the postcards in DD and DS's names and didn't know if I could mail one for each of them each day or only one from my address each day.

My postcards are old Longaberger show invitations measuring 4" x 6". I have not been trimming them and we have won 4 times.
I'm thinking that they just do not want grossly oversized postcards or ones with odd shapes.

I've gotten my postcards back twice. I asked the postman today about it and he said that the machine reads my info on the back and sends it back to me. I even have To: and From: on them. He suggested I turn the postcard 1/4 turn and write it the long way. He also said to just cross out the bar code on the postcard and resend it.

A nybody else get theirs returned to them? Or have any other suggestions?
