Re: Postage goes up again today
Everything is going up except one thing.......that paycheck.
That dollar bill is getting weaker by the second!

Re: Postage goes up again today
This was a big deal at my work. I do direct marketing (aka junk mail) so we had to adjust all sorts of computer programs to account for the change. One cent might not seem like a lot, but when you're mailing out 5million Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons that extra penny, or fraction of a penny in our case because we're dealing in bulk, tends to add up rather quickly.

Re: Postage goes up again today
My wife wanted me to go out in the rain last night to get stamps because the increase went up today. I looked at her right in the eye and said, I'm not going out in the rain to save a measly 20 cents on a book of stamps...needless to say, the couch is awful lumpy to sleep on
 (Satire of course, my wife has never made me sleep on the couch...yet)

Re: Postage goes up again today
I wish they would bump the rate up 5 cents or so and keep it there for a while. I'm tired of looking for 1 cent stamps.
