Stamps to raise another penny
Stamps will go up another penny on May 12th for those of you who still use the good 'ole USPS.

The new cost will be 42 cents.

That's why it pays to buy the "forever" stamp!

The PO is still the cheapest way to mail stuff but it is getting up there and wish it would stop. lol

It might just be me but I still find value in the fact I can walk to the end of my drive stick a letter in a box and my buddy can open his door in Denver in 2-3 days reach in a box and get it out of a box all for 41 cents..

Business is down, if I had to guess that won't be the last of it in the near future. Mail has been lighter than usual except on Saturdays and Mondays. Nice break for me in this super cold weather

Chris, How many people on average bought or even know about the forever stamp this past year? That .41 is locked in forever right? lol - You just have to buy 8 zillion of them.

There were a ton sold, don't know any kind of numbers on it, but you don't even know how many people bought them and used them right away. I think it is a solid idea and you will probably see more sold at the new rates as well, if I had to guess

Yeah I know, nobody really mails stuff anymore. If it weren't for junk mail and catalogs I don't think I'd have a job, lol
