Single issue TAG from Missoula $1.34 to anywhere in the US plus the cost
of an envelope (don't have that receipt for 500 envelopes, probably
$.10). Canada under $2. Overseas $3.60. Scott would know better. He
has all my past receipts. Paula

Okie doke. thanks folks. If we're not using padded than the envelope cost is negligible given the margin of error for changing UPS and USPS rates.
I'll send something out this weekend. Have some cement work to fit in this weekend too. And then I'm going to CA April 10-20. That state had one of the largest governmental monetary surpluses in the world when I left in 1982. Didn't take them long to? go to hell in handbasket.

That's EXACTLY what I'm interested in knowing! So the website could say
Single Issue TAG US and Canada $6 Elsewhere $8
Just need to fill in the other blanks for the back issue combo TAG/PAM,
