I love, love, love this independent card store that is also filled with the perfect little gifts. The staff is amazing and I cannot ever enter without leaving with something. Please support local. Trust me shopping here is always a wonderful experience.

I was having trouble finding a navy plastic Penco Clampy online that wasn't either super inflated in price or else sold out. Thankfully I came across Penny Post and was able to order one easily and affordably from Penny Post! I actually made the mistake...Read More

I wandered in here while in town for work to buy my first fountain pen. I’m a complete novice and they were so helpful! They explained the differences between brands, helped me pick an ink color that would match the pen, and showed me...Read More

Absolutely obsessed with this stationary store, I was not expecting to spend as much as I did, but I love every piece so picked out. Excellent selection of travelers company products, which a rare find. Will be returning soon.

A fanciful stationery store in the heart of Old Town. Why visit the P---- place when you can feel like you're in your own studio?! Paper, and pens, and pencils oh, my. There's a loyalty club to join for discounts, a good thing...Read More

The consequence of window shopping is that I end up going in and buying something, but that turned out to be a good idea! I stumbled across Penny Post by happenstance, and was glad to purchase a few items. The best part is that I then...Read More

I am obsessed. They have loads of cute stationery, cards, stickers, pencils, and accessories… but my very favorite part is their pen wall. So many individual pens it’s easy to try and find new favorites in every sort—ballpoint and fountain and gel and highlighters.

This store is so unique and cute. I love their selection of stickers for stocking stuffers, kids' parties or to decorate my water bottle. The cards, while expensive, are so clever and cute. I got my classic yellow duck umbrella here and funny cards to...Read More

This place is heaven for those who love stationery especially pens! Japanese, German, and Swiss pens are plenty in stock. It’s a real treat going here! The prices are a bit steep but you’re inevitably paying for quality.

I stopped in very serendipitously on a trip to DC. I was always interested in fountain pens but have never really had a chance to try them out. Lucky for me, they had a promotion going on for some fountain pens and I had the...Read More

I had the best experience shopping online with this small business. I purchased a nostalgic gift for myself on the penny post website, a yellow original duckhead umbrella like the one I had as a kid, because the actual brand's website didn't have my preferred...Read More

Always a fun selection of creative supplies. Some products run very high end and are more costly than others but there are lots of small items to browse as well for all ages. I can never resist popping in here and always head home with something...Read More
