Send Snail Mail Postcards for Free
Have you checked out Hippopost yet? If you haven’t, you should. It is a very cool site.
You can create a postcard online, give them the snail mail address of who you’d like to send it to, and they will print it and mail it, all for free! You need to create an account with them in order to send postcards. The account is free. You must be willing to give them your mailing address however. You cannot create an account without it.
You can upload your own digital or scanned photo, or you can choose one of their pre-loaded images. After choosing the image, write your message (14 lines maximum) and enter the name and address of the recipient. The next screen allows you to preview your card and make any edits needed or desired before clicking send.
Once you click send, sit back and relax; Hippopost will take care of printing your card and mailing it.
Please note that Hippopost relies on their sponsors so that they can continue to provide this free service to consumers. Each postcard sent through Hippopost will contain a sponsor’s advertisement under the message.
