Do you use many stamps?
The cost of them.is rising again soon?
Shouldn't it be frozen?
Do you ever buy them before they go up to get some in.
I don't use many stamps today thankfully.

I bought 4 first class yesterday - £6.60. You were overcharged.

I had to pay extra to get a letter from the post office as the sender had used a stamp without a barcode - i don't think the stamp was that old, just a few years

they were first class stamps

How odd? I paid £6.60 for a book of 4 first class yesterday.

I don't see how they will survive. I don't send cards anymore, anything that needs to be signed is docusign, and parcels go by Evri. The postal service here is quite frankly shite.

The amount of junk mail I receive in a week now has increased by some, so I expect that's one way.

I haven't bought stamps in about two decades.
