Mailing Rate Change

Just wanted to give you all a quick update about mailings -- the post office has changed their rates again. According to the USPS website, here are the current rates for actor mailings as of 10/29/11:

Postcards: $0.29
Large Envelope with Headshot/Resume (2 ozs or less in weight): $1.08

Note: Adding a piece of cardboard to your headshot mailing (to keep it from bending) will raise the price of your mailing significantly.
