Frugal Living at The Dollar Stretcher


The First Post-It Notes

by Michael Webb

Whether you are in a long distance relationship or a short distance one, communication is vital. One way to communicate is through the mail. And an inexpensive way to do so is with postcards.

Postcards only cost 32 cents to mail in the United States. Some restaurants, bookstores or shops even carry racks with free postcards on them. Most of the postcards are clearly selling something, but hey, they're free.

If you have 8 postcards you can put one letter ( I L O V E Y O U ) on each card and mail them a few days apart. Of course you can write whatever phrase you want and even mix them up before you send them off.

So for less than $3 you can let your sweetheart know just how much they mean to you - one letter at a time.
