Go Postal On Your Valentine This Year

By Kevin Robinson in News on Feb 1, 2013 5:40PM

If you're like us, you love sending (and receiving) actual mail. And with Valentine's Day right around the corner, what better excuse than to send someone something special in the mail?

While you might have picked out the perfect VD card for that special someone, did you know that the US Postal Service can help you get an amazing postmark on your card, too?

Simply address the card to that special person, use a First-Class Mail postage stamp and put it into a larger envelope, also with postage, address it to VALENTINE’S DAY POSTMARK, POSTMASTER, then add any of the following locations, to get that town's postmark:

7815 Beauty Rd, BEAUTY, KY 41203-9998
6664 Route 362, BLISS, NY 14024-9998
200 W Main St, HARTSVILLE, TN 37074-9998
446 E 29th St, LOVELAND, CO 80538-9998
1423 River Front Rd, LOVELY, KY 41231-9998
239 N Hall St, VALENTINE, NE 69201-9998
1 Leacock Rd, PARADISE, PA 17562-9998

If you're not feeling the love this year, though, fret not! Instead, try one of these postmarks:

1701 S Main St, BROKEN ARROW, OK 74012-9998
4722 Waisanen Rd, EMBARRASS, MN 55732-9998
101 S Edwards St, INDEPENDENCE, CA 93526-9998
1701 El Nido, DIABLO, CA 94528-9998
665 6th St, SOUR LAKE, TX 77659-9998
3701 US 52 Hwy, COWARD, SC 29530-9998

Sadly, Intercourse, PA does not seem to be available.

Make sure your card is in the mail by Feb. 5, for your card to be delivered by the 14th.
