Your stamp on this envelope adds to your gift!What charities should say on their reply-paid envelopes:
You could put a stamp on this envelope to save us money, but why not donate an extra 45 cents and let us pay the postage, since our charitable institution reply-paid rates are much lower than what you'd pay?
That way our charity gets more money, the post office gets less money, you get a bigger tax deduction, and the government gets less money to start foreign wars and hire meddling bureaucrats to make your life hard!I guess the people that think hard about how to arbitrage the government don't tend to end up in the charity fundraising business.
Postal reply arbitrage does have a somewhat checkered past, but I think it's now time to rehabilitate its reputation.
