Does anyone know how much it costs to mail the Mini Catalogues in Canada? Just curious if I want to use them for Invitation or not....
 
I can't recall the price, but I think it's just one stamp, if memory serves. However, go to Canadapost.ca/ventureone and look into getting a Venture One card - it's for small businesses, and is free. You can get some discounts and points for rewards, etc.

How many are you planning on sending out? Remember, the cost becomes an expense you can write off with your taxes.

Have fun!

Thanks! I am only planning on mailing 9 so the cost won't be bad. I keep all my receipts from Canada Post :) My D has TONS of leftover Minis so it worked out well when I found out that you can no longer order them on SO.
 
Sorry no idea but I too second Venture One. 5% off postal for packages and for any products as well. Better than nothing. I've had it for 3 years now.

you are right - they are just one stamp - but need to be taped on all three sides so they can go through the machines without being ripped.
