Return Address Labels

CherryHugs — Fri, 01 Mar 2019 19:26:08 GMT

Do you use return address labels? I was thinking of ordering some.

Is there a good place to order them?

I donated to St Judes. As a result I get address labels every other month. No need to purchase any.

You can buy Avery brand labels and print them from your computer.

@CherryHugs I've been called an old soul because I love sending letters & cards. The last time I ordered return address labels my beloved sister ordered them for me from Vista Print. They always have deals going on. I think the quality is great. Hope this helps.

I've ordered them from ebay, sent a picture of my dog to the seller and she would copy it and make up return address stickers that would last me for years. And all for a reasonable cost.

I love cute return address labels.

I order all of ours from Colorful Images.

@CherryHugs I've ordered some from Ebay too, and gotten very cool ones. There are thousands to choose from, though, so it's time-consuming to sift through them on Ebay. They can be pricier than finding them elsewhere too although I've never been unhappy with any.

There is usually an ad in the Sunday newspaper coupon insert booklets to order them from Current. That's where I've bought them the most (you can also go online and order from Current). They are pretty inexpensive, esp. if you opt for getting 500 rather than 250. I've never had a problem ordering those - they've always been printed accurately and I get the entire roll of 500 that lasts me a very long time. You can select from different fonts/lettering styles.

I also have several dozen I've received from the American Heart Assoc. (asking me to make a contribution too) that have hearts of different designs on them. They aren't bad for freebies.

I use the ones from DAV, but I also buy blank labels and print my own.

If you have a print shop in your local area, they can print custom labels for you as well.

Buying local will keep your name off a mailing list. Ordering from anywhere puts your name on mailing lists forever.

I have to say I hardly mail anything anymore. Still send bday cards and sympathy notes, but so many other communications are done thru the computer!!
But I have also ordered from Vista Print and the expense was minimal! There are lots of images for your selection.

I gave up on labels e-ions ago. Use ink stamp with built-in ink pad. No fuss with pulling labels off support paper - just pick up stamp and bang bang - it's done. Lots of choices out there - cute to a message.

@deeva, this is what I do. It's simple, you can put whatever you want on your own personalized labels.

Almost every charity I donate to sends me address labels. I have a shoebox almost half full of them.

I make my own using Avery 8160 labels.

I add name plus address & a cute pic.

I have a pic of this precious moments figurine on mine right now.

Almost every charity I don't contribute to sends me address labels. I keep them in a big envelope.

Have always ordered from Current. Very pleased with how easy they are to read and how well they stick.

I doubt if I will live long enough to use all of them. I wish charities would stop sending me junk that I will not use. I tried returning a package from a charity and the mailman said they just dump them.

I just ordered some last month, from Artistic Labels/Artistic Direct online. They were the worst - very fuzzy, almost couldn't read the name and address. I know I won't use them. Just an heads up, I wouldn't recommend them.

@CherryHugs

Rather than go the stick on labels route, I ordered a stamper from Staples. For the name, I used all caps of our last name....DH or Incould use the stamper.
