Wasn't quite sure what to title it but stumbled across thiswhen I went to go search for tracking on an item.

Basically, write a letter to yourself, stick it in an envelope and put your return address on the top left corner of the envelope (important, this is how it gets back to you!).

Stick "FREEPOST" on the top right corner of the envelope (no stamp required) and address it to:

Letter to My Future Self, PO Box 13812, Freepost FDN7725, Dublin 1.

And you'll get your letter back in May 2026!

This obviously isn't sponsored or anything, I just used to write letters to my future self all the time when I was younger and am still finding them under skirting boards and at the back of presses, years later.

Plus, it's always nice to get post that isn't a bill!

Happy writing everyone!! 🙂

  3. Buy yourself 100€ in bitcoin, put the only private key for wallet in letter, send it to yourself 20 years in the future. Profit.

    Edit: nevermind. I see that it’s just 1 year in the future.

  5. Hmmm… aren’t *all* letters sent to someone in  the future?

  6. Writing my future self hate mail is what my diary is for, thank you.

  8. Fair warning this is a miserable bastard in the comments warning:

    I’d prefer them to host an “We’ll actually deliver your fucking parcel” service

    I had something sent to me from the US, I paid customs, it makes it to Dublin and the fuckers sent it back. Good luck me getting the €50 back never mind the cost of the goods

  9. That’s just their new regular post delivery targets.

  11. This would explain why they leased all those storage wearhouses.

    They must be keeping future versions of us in there as prisoners or something.

  12. They also offer free post to care homes til the end of the year, which I wasn’t aware of. They’re certainly much better than other postal services in the world.

  14. I did this in school.

    When I got it back it was me roasting future myself with various cutting barbs and insults.

    Would not recommend.

  15. More like write a letter to the future tenant of the place you’re renting 😭

  16. I think this is really lovely, thank you for sharing!

  18. Do I have to register it or you’ll nick it tho?

  19. Hahah I’d be morto that I’d write something and I wouldn’t be living in this place anymore … It would be the laugh of r/Ireland in the wrong hands 😂

  20. Is this a new/temporary thing? Would love to do it during a family meeting up we have planned in July.

  22. If you prefer you can write yourself an email to futureme.org and set it for whenever you want in the future to be emailed back to you either

  23. “Hello future self, fuck you for being so lazy”

  24. “dear me,

    Are you still fucking here?

    “love, you”
