Maybe you should go to the Chesweld post office instead. They are much nicer people working there so you won't mind price increases. You will want to remember this though --- that post office closes for lunch from 12 oclock to 1 oclock every day. If you forget, go over to Redner's and buy some gorceries.
There is a forever stamp that you can buy now and use even when the prices go up. We bought them when we got the last raise and can still use them.Last edited on Fri May 29th, 2009 09:23 pm by Two and a half cents

The process does seem self-defeating because each time the price goes up we look for other ways to cut those costs. When it approaches half a buck to send a bill in , you look at on-line payments. The postal service is faced with the same cost increases you and I are but that doesn't make their dilemna our problem. We all have to adjust as best we can to do more with less....
