    I really like the idea of sending out a postcard with a magnet attached to it but I have a few concerns. I wanted to send postcards to save money on envelope and postage but I am not sure how I would attach the magnet without it falling off while in transit. I've also heard that postcards get lost in the mail or damaged easily. I saw this idea on Martha Stewart weddings but would the post office allow this since the card is no longer flat? I also would if it would increase shipping rates. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

    It's cute, but I think it cost more. But the only way to find out is to contact someone at the post office.

    we didn't do magnets.  Save the dates fro Vista were cheap.  I am helping my sister now and she got a SAVE the DATE sing and we took a picture of her holding that with her fiance.  OMG it is so cute!

    Update: I tried to mail these out and my post office in Dallas said that it is no longer considered a postcard because the envelope no longer makes it flat. It would have been 64 cents to mail a postcard because it can't go through the machines either!
