are you licking stamps?

Although I do buy self addisive postage stamps I have also been buying the ones where you lick them to stick them on the envelope. Oh my LOL I have just read a serious article in the newspaper saying that one stamp is 1 calorie! wow I am going to put on weight even before eating the Christmas pudding!

Nope, I do not lick stamps - they're disgusting and I always use water back then when you still had to lick stamps, lol!

Lolz! I used to do that when I was younger. But now I find it gross really. The post office here provides water for the mailer to use on the stamp. Just wiping a small amount will be enough to make the stamp stick to the mail.

No. I don't lick stamps, because I always use registered mail. Registered mail has their special stamps.

Hi MAllen No I don't lick stamps not because of the calorie it may have but because of the taste and the glue used on it YUCK I get the kind that just stick on the envelope
