Postage Stamp question!!!!?

Question

if you need $0.94 postage, but only have $.39 stamps, can you put three on even though it will go over $.94? Trying to mail internationally to my sponsor child!

Answer 1

they will always acept it as long as it is not less,if its more don't expect to get your money back...you are doing a good thing in life God bless...

Answer 2

yes pretty laddy

Answer 3

yes. I did that many times.

Answer 4

You certainly can, and the Post Office will love you forever.  LOL

Answer 5

Of course you can overpay postage, but be sure to label the letter as "Airmail" or put an AIRMAIL/PAR AVION sticker on it.  Include USA on the last line of your return address and place it on the upper left. Write the name of the destination country in upper case English by itself on the last line of the address.

Take a trip to the post office to get some 3-cent stamps so that you can put them next to your 39-cent stamps when you mail them domestically because current postage is 42-cents, and while you are there, look at some nice commemorative stamps which you can use to overpay postage to your sponsor child.  If the child doesn't treasure them, the charitable organization that assists him or her can collect and resell the used commemoratives for additional funding.

Answer 6

Yes, you can use more than the appropriate amount of postage -- just don't use too little.

Answer 7

You can always do that. Th epost office would actually appreciate that more.

If you feel like you're a bit stingy, you can always go to the post office and buy smaller postage, like 1c, 2c, 5c, and 10c, to make up the difference.
