Re: Post Office Wants To Raise Postage Again

The post office is so sad.  I was told last year by a cashier at the P.O. that stamp rates are down,  Oh, yes, and the P.O. raised first class mail packages so HIGH it is beyond ridiculous.  I only send 20 or under Christmas cards now and a lot of people have completely stopped.  Cat Very Happy

Good point! I know that I have more than I'm likely to use up in the next 20 years... I simply don't use that many stamps!

Re: Post Office Wants To Raise Postage Again

I pay 99.999% of my bills online. Although e-cards are avaiable for probably every occasion, I buy stamps to mail birthday, Christmas, sympathy cards, etc. It amazes me to send a card and it goes a thousand miles to my sister in three days, Under fifty cents is a colossal bargain in that case. Even something just going across town is cheaper than driving to deliver it yourself.
