i put a lot of thought into this problem once

But aren't you then stuck with a lot of stamps? Or am I simply highlighting my lack of friends to send letters/cards to?

You walked right into that one!

Yes you have a point-I really need to think through these things more carefully

other guy here... It was said somewhat tongue in cheek, but I think the original post said they had about HK$500 worth of change. That's a lot of stamps! Although, now I think about it, I don't send a lot of mail...

well if you want a book of 10 stamps to send letters overseas (I got through more of these than local stamps!) that's 30HKD... so yes, I think I agree, that is rather alot of stamps!
