Postage Stamp prices set to increase for the second time in 2024!I have now lost count on how many times since 2012 I’ve had to write about a postage stamp increase. We’re over ten at this point.
Last year was a double whammy for stamp prices. In January 2023 they went up to $.63. And in July 2023, they went up to $.66 each.
This year is a WHOPPING jump in price! We got hit with a price increase in January from $.66 to $.68. And now we’re getting a FIVE CENT increase in July.
On July 14, 2024, the United States Postal Service are going to increase the price of Forever Stamps to $.73 each.
The good thing about the Forever stamps, is that any that stamps you buy prior to the increase will still get your mail where it needs to go even after the price increase. So this means any stamps you currently have or purchase before July 14th will still be usable.
The Smithsonian Postal Museum has a list of postage stamps rates on their website if you want to see how much they’ve gone up over the years.
