They were super fun but a LOT of work. I got them at a stamp show and had to dig each and every one out one...by...one (NOT counting the pap smear stamps and the man on the moon stamps, I was able to get a couple sheets of those). Some of them were just hilarious...and some were a little politically incorrect. People loved 'em!</p> <p>@T-Mom: You know, I'm not sure. I don't think any of the ones that I got/used were really worth much at all because they were literally single stamps that were dumped in a giant container. Had they been in mint condition in sheets, maybe? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-a-postage-stamp-cost-when-you-got-married#post-498269 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 13:34:59 +0000 T-Mom 498269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ms.janedoe: just curious, but did any of your vintage stamps (such as pap smear, LOL) have a higher market value than the face value of the stamp? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-a-postage-stamp-cost-when-you-got-married#post-498257 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 13:32:34 +0000 tororojo 498257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I believe it was $.44</p> <p>@ms.janedoe: I want pap smear stamps! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-a-postage-stamp-cost-when-you-got-married#post-497910 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 11:56:38 +0000 T-Mom 497910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ms.janedoe: I love your stamps! I have a bunch of stamps left over from my wedding that I didn't use, and I have to collect enough small postage to equal the soon to be 46 cent rate. My bills are going to look crazy.</p> <p>@autumnlove: Can you believe that when I got married, Forever stamps didn't exist yet? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-a-postage-stamp-cost-when-you-got-married#post-497890 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 11:51:41 +0000 Turd Ferguson 497890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>45 cents, and I was somehow able to keep it right at 45 cents for mailing, too! We used vintage stamps (pap smear stamps being one kind we found...) so quite a few ended up going out with more postage: </p> [attach=2591/13/mgh065.448x600.photo.JPG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-a-postage-stamp-cost-when-you-got-married#post-497878 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 11:49:26 +0000 bunnylove08 497878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>42 cents (2008). We used forever stamps so we were able to use them for our TY cards when the price went up </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-a-postage-stamp-cost-when-you-got-married#post-497870 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 11:47:37 +0000 autumnlove 497870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't even remember!

I can't recall! I'm in Canada and was able to buy the cheapest stamp, didn't have to get the one for heavier stuff.. I *just* squeaked under. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-a-postage-stamp-cost-when-you-got-married#post-497808 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 11:32:26 +0000 T-Mom 497808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One stamp was only 39 cents in 2006 when I got married! </p> <p>The price is going up again on 1/27 to 46 cents.. get your Forever stamps now! </p>
