Be sure not to use old postcard stamps now that they went up to 51 cents a couple weeks ago. You will need to add 3 cent stamps if you are using the 48 cent sailboat ones.

If the stamp says "Postcard" on it you do not need to add any additional postage to your card. They are treated just like the "Forever" stamps.
