i used to mail out a gazillion letters a month.. and, i give a firm heads up to the little bottles with the sponge tops. also, flap your envelopes, flattening out the fold over bit, so you can easily slide in cards.. then, using the same stacking, you can swipe the bottle bottom to top, then run the side of your palm down the flap top to bottom, thus reducing motion and effort. flip the stack over, and, by folding the stamp page a bit, the edge of the stamp comes free, allowing you to quickly slide a stamp on each piece. for every 20 cards, stop, press firmly on the upper stage left edge to secure the stamp and move on. (i should do this as a video, right?)

with this, i was able to stuff, seal, label and stamp 1000 letters an hour.

I'm an east coaster. I know that stores are already putting out Christmas decorations, but I didn't realize that sending out Christmas cards started so early in Hollywood. Was the post just a heads up and the mailing is later in the month? I'm just curious how things work (or don't) in Hollywood.
