I dropped ours in the blue mailbox, and everyone still got their invites. It will be totally fine!
ok phew. I just needed one response. Think I'm really starting to lose it.
i'm sure it'll be fine. it's not like they'll sit in there for THAT long anyway. i mean the mail person comes every day.
i say this, but i'd totally worry too. i think you'll be able to breathe easy once you hear about the first person receiving it in pristine condition.
I dropped mine off on Wed in to the "blue box" too! I am already getting replies that people got them! :)
I think the only reason most people take them to the PO is so they can hand-cancel or they want to make sure they go out on the same day.
I just mailed mine from my office's blue box - they were fine.
I put my last batch in the big blue post office box. They all got there ok.
I dropped them at the post office only because when i went to put it in the post office drop box, it had this ominous sign that said that if it was over a certain weight it would be returned to me if i didnt go to the front desk. and i wasnt sure what the weight was of my invites (it took 61 cents, so i know its not like a normal letter) and the weight they put was an odd number and i dont do conversion well in my head.
mine were all hand cancelled though.
I dropped our STD's in the blue mailbox directly outside a post office, and a few people never received theirs (my parents included!).
But I also dropped our invites in the blue mailbox, directly outside a different post office, and I have received plenty of responses already, and have not heard from anyone not receiving theirs. I personally asked my parent's if they received theirs this time!

Sorry, there are no users yet.
We finished our invitations last night and I just couldnt wait to get them out. I was so eager that I walked down the street and put them all in the blue mailbox. I was told to forget about hand cancelling because these days they need to go through a machine anyway. Is it bad to put it in the mailbox and not go direclty to po? I had them weigh and check the postage earlier in the day. I have this vision of something happening to that mailbox: someone dropping a can of coke in it, throwing their lit cigarette....please make me feel better.
