That's all I buy. Had not heard they went up. Guess I will pay my bills online.

Like was said, still a bargain. I had heard that all stamps are considered forever stamps now.

We only pay three bills through the mail. Used to be two,but for some reason the mortgage company sent us notice that there would be a 5 dollar charge for online transaction.

The Missus puts a check in the mail the first of every month. The due date is the first,but it is not considered late until the 5th , no late charge is assessed until the 15th. Every month we get a call on the 5th looking for the payment. Missus sweetly explains to them that if they want their money on the first they will let us do a free electronic transfer as has been their policy for years. Until then their agent is guaranteed employment,calling us once a month.

My wife is obstinate, as long as she doesn't have me in her sights I am happy.
 
Stamps are a minute portion of our budget...a sheet of "forever" stamps lasts us for weeks. I would rather pay a few cents more for stamps than see the USPS shutting down more post offices. I don't even mind the pounds of junk mail we get in a months time....that baloney helps keep the USPS in business.
 
I still pay most of my bills by mail, I prefer it that way, but someday I might not have a choice.
 
It’s $1 for a stamp to post a business size letter in Australia

If you are on a aged pension you can buy a book of 6 stamps for $3 to post a business size letter
 
I already pay some bills online by cash rewards cc that I pay off at end of month. Its nice to get that check from Kroger every now and again.
 
I buy a couple books of stamps twice/month,agree with what Don M. had to say,price hasn't but a 'dent' in my budget either. I've never paid my bills online,always send by mail,but I do make copies of the cks I send.I mail a lot of cards to members of my church e.g. sympathy,get well,birthday depending on the situation. I'm the head of our prayer circle group.In my opinion getting a card instead of an email is more personal Sue
 
By the time I need stamps again the price will probably rise another 25 cents for each stamp. I don't remember the last time I bought stamps all I know is I have 12 left.
 
Again?! Well I guess they need the money. I mail something about three times a year. I still have some forever stamps left. After they're gone, I have stamps in several denominations that I can combine to make up 50 cents or whatever the price is at the time. I probably have enough here to last me for life. But I do like to guy the tribute stamps and keep one of each in my collection. One of the coolest forevers:
