Stamps Go Up 2 Cents Today To 44 Cents

Just a reminder. Today is the day that postage rates go up once again. First class postage goes up 2 Cents to 44 Cents. There are some other increases also like postcards go up a penny to 28 Cents. Check the USPS Price Guide for current rates.

Unfortunately it's kind of a vicious cycle. Internet and email give no cost alternatives (at least for those of us who consider broadband to be a required expense anyways). Lower mail volume, lower USPS income, raise rates. More people look for alternatives (pay bills on-line, send e-cards, etc.). USPS loses more income, raises rates.

I do use USPS for packages whenever I have occasion. You can ship priority mail by preparing, paying for and printing labels on their website. I then leave the package in a bag on my mailbox post. You can even get boxes free for priority mail shipping. The rates are reasonable, shipments are trackable, service is reliable. Try it.
