So the PO is going to raise postage once again

[Winterblues]

$.02 first of May, bringing first class stamps up to $.44 apiece. I feel like I am drowning in rate hikes..Freight charges just went up, now postage. Ugh...

1. 44 cents in honor of President Obama #44

I am proud to pay toothat much! :patriot:

2. Go buy the Forever Stamps. They are good even when the price

is increased.

4. Forever stamps are a terrific idea

A great hedge against price hikes. May as well stock up on them now, if you use the post often and have cash to spare.

I have a feeling that most of the rate hike is going to end up being paid by the spammers who send the bulk (pun intended) of USPS mail.

5. It's still a bargain.

For that price a piece of mail gets delivered, no matter where the person lives. Think about it. Big city, small town, where ever, the mail gets delivered. Six days a week.

6. Dude, it's $0.02.

They only raise prices when they need/have to. They can't just raise it a dime and not have raises for a longer time. I have no problem paying two pennies more for a letter to get where ever I want in the US.

7. I don't even go through a book of stamps a year

Thank goodness for online banking and email.
