According to the USPS web site, the minimum surface mail rate to UA 
is now 6ドル.00 US for up to 16 ounces (454 g). If one is sending 7 oz. 
or less, it is less expensive (and much faster) to use Airmail Letter 
Post at 0ドル.84 per oz. (28 g.) I just weighed nine cards plus an 
envelope and still came in under one ounce.
