If you think 60 cents is sky high, try sending your paper check via UPS or FedEx.

I avoid sending paper checks if at all possible.  Years ago I started using my bank's bill pay feature for that reason.  My payment goes electronically to those companies that are set up to receive electronic payments.  For others, the bank mails a payment, so postage is their cost instead of mine.  Also there's an indisputable record that the payment was sent and when.

I still use a paper check for things like paying a cleaning lady or the grass cutter.  No postage involved there - just hand it to them.

There's been a list on the doors at the PO here for many weeks now.

@millieshops Go to the PO building only twice in a blue moon.  Order stamps via mail....

so me no see the posted notice.

@fthunt   on their website???

AS for the price hike -  stamps most likely wouldn't cost me an extra dollar a year -  packages are a different story!

I always order a stash of Forever stamps from the USPS website.

I haven't needed to visit a post office in decades.

Thanks for posting the chart, @ThinkingOutLoud . I'm not tech savvy so don't know how to do that.

The only time I use a stamp is to send out a card.  I do everything through my credit unions electronic pay. It's easy and fast.
