USPS Raises Stamp Prices

From Yahoo News:
"U.S. Postal Service lifts stamp price by 1 cent"

The cash-strapped U.S. Postal Service announced on Tuesday a one-cent increase in the cost of mailing a letter, starting in January. The new prices lift the cost of a first-class stamp to 45 cents starting on January 22, 2012, the first increase in more than two years. The Postal Service said the cost to mail a postcard will go up three cents to 32 cents, letters to Canada or Mexico will increase five cents to 85 cents, and letters to other international locations will increase seven cents to $1.05.

^ The USPS just keeps pushing customers away. I really wish they would get their act together - as other Postal Organizations around the world have - that will solve their budget woes as well as provide the service people pay for. ^
