On Monday, postage rates are increasing. First class stamps will be going up one cent to 42 cents. I have some Forever stamps. These are stamps that you buy at the going rate, and then you can use them, well, forever. Protecting you from price increases. If you want to stock up the 41 cent version (and use them through any successive increases to postage rates), now is the time to do it.

Thanks for the heads up! I almost forgot about it because I rarely use them anymore!
BUT, my husband was going to buy stamps so I sent him a word of warning. Hopefully I wasn’t too late. I’m sure the post office would have told him. I hope. Ya think?
Shouldn’t be a problem if he gets them today (Friday the 9) or tomorrow (Saturday the 10). I hardly use them as well. So much can be done electronically now.
