I wondered if the postage would be valid on a 250g/500g large letter if i purchased a 100g large letter label from Click and Drop and then attached stamps to make it up to the value of the 250g or 500g large letter? Or even up to a small parcel?
The reason why i would want to do this is because I have a lot of stamps and used to drop off my mail paid for with these stamps to my local PO, but this recently closed so I now have quite a trek to get to the nearest PO. Yet there is a convenience store just at the end of my street which I can drop RM packaged off at but only if they have a barcode/QR code that the shop can scan, they cannot take stamped mail.
So if I can buy a lower priced label from click and drop that the shop can scan and attach stamps to get it up to the correct postage value, I can get the convenience of dropping them off locally plus also use up the stamps.
Does anyone know if this is going to work or will the packaged get marked as insufficient postage paid, even though it will have enough postage on it with the click and drop label plus the stamps?

Just use stamps only and put in a postbox.

Re: Click and drop label + stamps for postage
Postboxes would work if I had any close by that accept small parcels or even the maximum size of large letter which I used a lot, but I dont.
Where as I have a local shop that accepts prepaid RM labels only 2 mins walk from my front door. But that doesn't accept stamped only mail. Hence me wondering if its feasible to combine prepaid label and stamps to get around the problem?
