Just got this email from our HR lady at work: 

 

 

 

Mailing Services Prices Effective Monday, May 11, 2009

On May 11 the price for a 1-ounce First-Class Mail stamp will increase from 42? to 44?. Prices for other mailing services ? Standard Mail, Periodicals, Package Services (including Parcel Post), and Extra Services ? will also change. The average increase by class of mail is at or below the rate of inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index.

Customers can use their Forever Stamps ? regardless of when purchased ? to mail 1-ounce letters after the price change, without the need for additional postage. Forever Stamps are widely available through Post Offices, commercial retail outlets such as grocery stores, and online.

Yeah, I did this the other day :-)  I bought 3 booklets.  I don't use stamps that often but will have to get more come Christmas but by then I will pay the additional price I guess, UGH!  Can't afford tons at one time, hehe.
