Stamp prices go up tomorrow? I didn't know that..

[georgiastorms]

I heard that they are going to be .39 cents. Will inflation ever end?????

Not going up in price until Jan 8, but if you want to get some, the stamps are for sale now:
Customers have more options than ever to purchase 39-cent First-Class stamps beginning December 8 to use when the new postage rates go into effect Jan. 8, 2006. Plenty of two-cent stamps will be available for customers to use with their 37-cent stamps

I must have caught the end of the news story, but I thought they said it was starting on Dec 8th. something was up with Dec 8th. Oh well. Thanks for the info. That is good news.

gah, i hope that is not so, cuz i just mailed out a bill with a .37c stamp. dang it.

I guess I should have looked into it more, just took what the news said. I know now that the .39 cent stamps will not go into affect until January. They just came out and you can buy them, but January is when the prices are going up to .39 cents. Sorry! Jumped the gun!
