What do you think about the price of stamps increasing yet again?

Will this change the way you send out your mail, like letters and bills? Will you use FED X or UPS more with all these increases in stamps almost every month?

It's tough... we don't use stamps all that much anyways, but they are still useful in occasional situations. We have bill pay through our checking account and we rarely send things through the mail, so I guess it won't affect us too much. Even though postage has gone up again, it is still cheaper most of the times than the least expensive service that a UPS or FedEx can offer.

It's not surprising, I've noticed that the price on stamps are raised every year at this time, but at the same time it does become costly, to think stamps will be 40 cents and just for three you have to spend over a dollar. This will certainly be difficult for my mother-in-law, since she works on ebay and sells as well.

That is something that we should expect to go up every year. It won't effect the way I send my mail. I will still use the postal service. I like the fact that it is a forever stamp, I always buy stamps by the books so that will help me out a lot the next time they go up on the stamps. I never use Fedx or Ups, they are higher than the postal service.

i dont like that the price is going up yet again, though at the same time it really does not matter all that much to me. All of my bills are paid through the internet, so I never send anything though the mail anyway. I am sure that this is the reason behind the increase. I mean I dont think that I know anyone who actually sits down and writs a letter. Now adays it is all about the email, and doing things online. The only thing that I think that I ever send though the regylar mail anymore is christmas cards around the holidays.
