Hi all,

I've got a package that's 2 and 1/2 oz.  It's not eligible for media mail.  Can I put postage on it and send it from home?  Plus, how much postage would it be?  Thanks!

Yes, I'd like an answer to this, too, since I'm participating in the Random Acts of Kindness swap. 

I'd like to send my small package First Class....can I do that from home, with stamps?  (under 13 oz., of course)

Yes, you can.  As long as it's under 13 ounces.

Use first class "package" rate.

weight not over 2 ounces, $1.30

weight not over 3 ounces, $1.47

weight not over 4 ounces, $1.64

weight not over 5 ounces, $1.81

weight not over 6 ounces, $1.98

weight not over 7 ounces, $2.15

weight not over 8 ounces, $2.32

weight not over 9 ounces, $2.49

weight not over 10 ounces, $2.66

weight not over 11 ounces, $2.83

weight not over 12 ounces, $3.00

weight not over 13 ounces, $3.17

Rates do *NOT* include Delivery Confirmation.

Is DC required?

No, DC is not required by the USPS.  If you are in a game or some such, it may be required.  I can't answer a lot of questions about it, honestly, because I almost never use it.

Thanks, guys!  You're awesome!  :0)

I mail from home, big envelopes about those sizes and I've never had a problem.  I weigh them after they're all ready to go so I have an exact weight and then stamp according to the usps web site for first class mail (which someone kindly posted here).  I don't think you should have a problem.
