Has anyone figured out a way to mail them that is cost effective? They are such an odd shape to ship.
 
They are an odd shape and I had to buy envelopes larger than the calendar. I'm not sure if I'll fold over the excess and just tape it shut or what. I am putting the calendar, holiday mini catalog, and a Thank You post card in the envelope.

2 pieces of cardboard & tape them all around it....HTH
 
Last year I folded over the bottom part that holds our cards and slid them in an envelope. I tried it on my own and it flexed back fine so I'll probably do it that way again.
 
Have you guys received yours?

Yes, Di - mine arrived on Saturday.
 
Last year I folded them like quiverfull7 did. They worked fine. Oh, and I think this year's catalog is ugly, compared to last year. My personal opinion.
 
Just wondering if anyone sent out a letter with thier calendars?
