Default mailing costs???

When you all send a single card in a top loader and bubble mailer with delivery confirmation, what are you being charged by the post office?

I'm between 2.39 and 2.59, depending on type of card. Then again, I pack in top load, team bag, two spacers for stability, and a packing peanut to meet the 3/4 inch rule for first class with DC.

Some single cards I can send for 1 oz, others are 2 oz

So --
$1.22 - $1.39 Postage
$0.19 DC
($1.41 - $1.58 for Postage)

If you count supplies
0.00 -- packing peanut (for right size)
0.08 -- #000 bubble mailer
0.005 -- 0.01 -- penny sleeve
0.0625 -- 0.34 -- Top loader
0.125 -- packaging reinforcement (optional depending on card)
0.055 -- shipping label
0.019 -- invoice

$1.63 - $2.03 total

So do I, sometimes I think we should keep a log and see how many times we can reuse them. I know one time I got one that had already been used 5 times so I used it a 6th time!

Usually $2.39

$1.59 sent in a bubble mailer with sleeve, toploader, team bag, and extra bubble wrap, plus $0.80 for USPS DC (I'm lazy, so I'll pay for the PO to do the DC instead of me doing it through pp...lol)
