It is that time of year again where a lot of bubbles are being sent out. The rates are constantly changing and there is no one flat rate any longer, it goes by zip code. This is the link to the USPS postage calculator- https://postcalc.usps.com/ Once there just enter your zip and the zip code being mailed to, then put in the date and hit "calculate based on shape & size", then add in est. weight and click "Package" which is what a bubble is considered. The rate will be the "First class package service-retail" amount. It can be pain when you get to the post office and all the bubbles are off by 15-50 cents.

Well said Steve. Most people seem to think that a couple first class stamps will cover postage but it does not.

Ouch! I just calculated the cost for a bubble to go from Rhode Island to Washington state: $4.90 That doesn't include the cost to send the bubble there. Makes me think that a $15 minimum bid isn't enough.
