Scratch-and-win stamps launched
Lucky four-leaf clover stamps will offer a chance to win one of 900 prizes
LA POSTE is set to launch a limited edition scratch-and-win stamp that could land lucky buyers one of 900 prizes.
The stamps, which feature a four-leaf clover, will be sold in books of six for €6,80 - some €2,30 more than the price of a normal book of stamps.
Each scratch stamp will reveal a code that entrants can check online at the soon-to-launch website www.laposte.fr/jeu-timbreagratter.
Daily prizes include tablets, headphones, folding bikes, coffeemakers, photo-books, gift certificates, personalised mugs, and USB keys.
Three prize draws - on April 2, June 2 and August 3 - will also give customers a chance to win an iPhone 6, a 3D TV, or a holiday for two worth €1,000.
The scratch-and-win stamps will be on sale from February 2 until July 31.

Meanwhile, stamp collectors of a more romantic disposition should be on the lookout for La Poste’s special Valentine’s stamp, which comes on out Monday. It features two lovers touching noses in an “Eskimo kiss”, and is the brainchild of the fashion designer Jean-Charles Castelbajac.
This stamp will be on sale at €0.68, the price of a green stamp.
