My gut feeling is that 3 is too few for a discount. Maybe 10? 5 at the least. I wouldn't go less than that. If we decide we really want to do it, I'll call the mailing company and ask them what the cost would be. I know they will send out small groups to a single address, but it has been as an expedient for management, not for subscribers. I have no idea what the actual charge is for that service.
