Summary: Postage will go up monday may 11th. The postage can only go up when consumer tax goes up, which measures inflation. It will go up two cents so first class mailing will now be 44 cents a leter. There is one way to prevent the price rise, which is a forever stamp. Forever stamps you purchase at current stamp selling price but they have no value so you can use them whenever, no matter what the price of postage is.
Opinion: I do not like that postage is going up but, it could be a good sign if postage is going up. I noticed the other day gas went up as well. Does this sudden rise in prices mean the economy is coming out of the recession? I do not know if that is what it means or not but either way I dont think its great postage is going up but 2 cents is affordable for most people.
