Less than a week left to sign up! Thanks to everyone who's sent me their addresses so far - I'm still missing two, so if you haven't sent yours yet, be sure to do so!

How many stamps to Israel?

ircalc.usps.com says $2.13 USD for a flat envelope ... so 5 stamps?

It looks like a rigid item inside (keychain, etc) would raise that to $2.43, or 6 stamps.

Note: prices calculated for a 2oz letter - the maximum weight that 3 stamps can send to Canada

I'll leave 5 spots total for Tal Esh. Anyone who sends more than a card should check for applicable rates.

Thanks for organizing this again Kara!

Lots of new names this year, and I'm really excited to have our first (that I know of) Israeli participant! Thank you Kyle for figuring that postage out!

A few people have PM'd me asking exactly what you'd be getting into with this exchange. In brief, by signing up, the following will happen to you:

- You will need to send X amount of cards via the postal service of your country, where "X" is the number of participants

- You will receive approximately* X amount of cards in return at the physical address you provide!

That's it! Pretty simple. There's still a few days left to sign up if you want to join in on the fun!


*I say "approximately" beacuse there's always inevitably a few cards that get lost in the mail, or someone doesn't actually send their cards (don't be that person!)

[GreyingJay]

^ And certain people have been known to send souvenirs other than just flat cards... so be prepared to receive all kinds of fun approximately-flat goodies!

We're excited to do this again. Had a blast with it last year.
