The day after Mother's Day, the cost of a first class postage stamp will increase from $.42 to $.44. That's an increase of nearly 5%.
The United States Postal Service offers a "Forever " stamp without cost designation. If you buy them now at $.42, you can use them when the costs increase. They are good for a first class mailing no matter how much the costs increase in the future.
Invest now. Buy your stamps for your Christmas cards at 2008 rates.
'til later

- Greetings! I have years, no decades, of financial experiences to share. I have a passion for education. I am a control freak in that I need to know where my $ goes. I continually ask myself do we need that, what risks are we taking with that investment, how/when can we get at our $, and just how much does Uncle Sam demand of our every earned $. Stay tuned to my life choices now and my references to life choices/experiences from my past.
