The post office wants to increase the price of a stamp by 2 cents to 46 cents.

Post office announces new rate increase - Yahoo! News

If I had any other choice of package service in my small town, I would never use the post office again.

Looks like it's time to go buy a few more sheets of "Forever" stamps. I bought my last batch before the raised the price like 2 times ago. Still have some, but I probably need to go ahead and get more. Sorry, if other services can do it cheaper, so can the US Postal Service.

The post office is unionized, that's why they're in the red, not because They need another 2 cents to mail my bills....

That's true. I used to know a lot of postal workers. They get paid really well.

Re: Post office announces new rate increase

I am so SICK of the federal govt claiming they have to do this or that to keep up! Rick works for the Dept of Vet Admin. He gets [aid less than half of what he could get in the private sector. He stays because 1) (and most important) he wants to do what he can for vets like himself and 2) he has job security no matter how bad the economy gets.

There is really NO good reason to raise the price of stamps yet again. What does this make - 4 times in 3 years?
