As a postal worker I have an awesome tip:

Take all your mail, then rifle through it looking at the postage. Make a pile for Standard, a pile for First Class, and put everything else in a third pile (non-profit etc). Look through the pile of Standard. It's literally all garbage. Look through the pile of first class, them's the bills. Look through the non-profit pile and if you're lucky you got return address labels from the Humane Society. If you didn't get return address labels and you need return address labels, make a small donation to the ASCPA and give it a month

Man I've been giving the ASPCA $20 a month for years and not a single address label...

What's an address label? (I'm not american)

Label you put in the corner of your outgoing mail that has your name and address preprinted on it so you don't have to write it.

Given that I write like... 2 letters a year, it's really not a significant burden. Anything of consequence is online, and if I'm mailing Christmas cards or something, I'll want a festive return label anyway.
