Carry Address Labels for Entry Forms

Hi Linda, Good idea, and we give them to our family & friends who keep forgetting our mailing address to use for a mailing label when writing to us. I also put one on each of our valuables like our camera's, cassette/cd players, cell phones etc.
At a crowded function like a family reunion, wedding, birthday whatever where everyone has their cameras out taking pictures, this helps in the confusion when someone picks one up & asks who does this belong to? Also, it helps at the one-hour-photo-shop to keep up with who it belongs to, and of course if ever lost, it will help for the finder to return it to us.

I've been using your tip for years. I get so many free address labels in the mail, usually a full self-stick sheet that can be perforated in three sections. I put one of those sections in my wallet where it's easily accessible. Many shopping malls have in-store contests, and it's so easy just to put an address label on the entry blank and put it in the box provided.

Linda, this is a great tip! Not only does it save YOU time, but it ensures that whatever you have signed up for will have a legible address to be sent to. My husband makes a computerized mailing list for a woman who exhibits and sells rare dolls at one of these fairs, and some of the forms that have been filled out at her booth for a free newsletter and update have been so hastily scrawled that they are totally illegible. It is unbelievable. My husband and I have spent quite a bit of time trying to decipher these, and of course, in many cases, it comes back in the mail as "undeliverable."
