Art, speaking for myself, I'd rather you NOT send me anything.  It's not the 3 cents, it's the pain in an extra step...but sending me a 3 cent stamp only furthers the issue, as I then either pocket your 3 cent stamp and do nothing, or try to find your SASE...which would take more time than 3 cents are worth.

I personally will add the 3 cents.  It's not your fault that the postage increased.  I think there were a few managers that implied they would not cover the extra 1 cent from the last increase, and per my prior posts and analysis, I'm not sure they should be managing if they're running that tight.

WHat I would suggest, as a token of thanks, the next time you request a card, and for most managers, that will probably happen, toss in an extra stamp and a TU....rather than confuse the current situation.

This is what I PREFER.....not sure on others, but I suspect  most would follow this rule.  Envelope opening, for 3 cents, is not a chore I wish to take on...HI
