Alright, well I found out why almost no one got them... the majority of them were returned damaged in my mailbox. At least most of the badges made it safely. As did most of the stamps. So unfortunatly, it looks like the only way to send these will be in padded envelopes. Which would require eveyone sending me extra money for the envelopes and postage.
SO, if anyone has any other ideas, please post them here or PM me. I really want to avoid having to make everyone send me another dollar or so by Paypal. The ones returned:
Zac Z.
Jose Cardenas

Mike C.
Todd F.
Cody W.
Terrence B.
Josh K.
Jason K.

Anyone not on the list, your letter made it. Hopefully.

Sure, it's just my luck.  What's wrong with all of those that are "damaged"? How about hitting up the Dollar Store for some padded envelopes? Let us know how much you want us to PayPal you.

I know, but they are very thin, I would understand if they were any thicker. Someone explain to me why some of them made it, and others didn't, when they all went out at once. None of the actual badges got damaged, only the envelopes. Stamped on the envelopes was:
RETURN TO SENDER Due to Possible Employee Injury and Equipment Damage, Odd Shaped items are Not Acceptable in Letter Style Envelopes, DMM-124
And, they made it through the local sorting machines, but didn't make it through the regional ones in Watertown. I can understand a bottle cap or something, but these aren't much thicker than a few pieces of paper. Anyways, if someone can check at Walmart and let me know how much a big pack of padded envelopes is, I would appreciate it. The closest Walmart is 30 min from here and I don't want to drive if they aren't much cheaper. The badges are 7 1/2" long 1" wide, and about 1/32" thick.

I checked Walmart.com and can't seem to find any envelopes! Do you have a Staples near by? If so, they have padded envelopes for $0.50: Staples
