Hey All-Just a reminder that US postage is going up on Monday the 11th. So b&p packages will be 5 cents more. Instead of $1.17 it would be $1.22. The additional ounce is still seventeen cents.If someone already posted this,sorry-

Thank you!
I mean, sorta.
LOL! I know, a whole nickel! I realized yesterday that most folks weren't aware of the impending increase from 42 cents to 44, along with the 1st class parcel increase.

I have a vague memory of hearing about it but I stocked up on the Forever stamps- so I haven't really cared for a while. BUT I am running low. And I actually wish I had read this this morning before I mailed my bills- I would have used the cute sunflower ones I have instead of the ugly Forever ones- but oh well.
And I am pretty sure most people I know don't know anything about it. And it is pretty important when you are mailing your mortgage payment or whatever.

I think they should make stamps of many different photos of cocktails. Or maybe roadside attractions. Or how about the cool old neon signs? Electric guitars?
I mean, I know it's "just a stamp", but if there were cooler ones they might inspire people to go back to actually writing letters just to have an excuse to use them.
