yeah Jeff, i guess I was lucky nobody peeked inside the envelope but it was under 60 bucks the 3 times i mailed it. Richard, usually what I do is just stick the money in the letter so the letter hides it, nothing fancy. I guess. sorry to hear about your loss. I'm letting our travel angency handle the money transfers that way janeth and go to the office and pickup her tickets and other info when she goes to Manila. thanks all for some advise. take care gidbless
