Need a stamp? just text one...

Seen what those crazy scandanavians are upto now?

Personally i love this idea - i only occasionally need stamps and the post office is almost always shut when i realise that i do need one.

In short you send a text when you need a stamp and receive a code in return. Write the code where the stamp should be and job done!

Id love them to trial it here, but im sure that our mob would find a way to spoil it. Its the small things that keep me amused and my life easier...

It's a great idea. You call do online postage here if you want:

Codes must be used within seven days of purchase and only on letters being posted to other addresses within Denmark.

Seems alittle short, 30 days would be a better choice i'd say.

I think 7 days is plenty. As said before, you are only going to do it for a quick letter. So you just text the same day, write the code and pop your letter in the box.
