I think they should raise the price of stamps to $1. This bull**** about
raising it every six months is silly. I buy a booklet of 20 stamps and
it lasts me a year.


People bitch about the cost of postage, but just how far would you go to
deliver something for 44 ? Overall, it is fast, efficient, and
reasonably priced. Now if they cold just infuse some personality into
the postal workers.


When stamp price rise I have often told the postal employee that I
wouldn't run this envelope across town, much less across the country for
.... whatever cents it costs.

I do my part by returning junk mail with the prepaid envelope. Be sure
to stuff it full because if it's a little too fat it costs the junk mail
sender/recipient a lot more to have it delivered to them.


They don't weigh prepaid return envelopes. All they do is count them.


If they don't fit through a skinny little slot, the rate is much higher.
