First-class postage rate increases to 42 cents
WASHINGTON (AP) — An extra penny for your thoughts.
Mailing a letter costs a penny more this week, with the price of a first-class stamp rising to 42 cents Monday.
But folks who planned ahead and bought Forever stamps for 41 cents each can still use them without extra postage.
Sorry, Forever stamps also went up to 42 cents. But buyers may want to stock up anyway, looking ahead to next May when prices are expected to be adjusted again.
The cost to mail a post card also went up a penny, to 27 cents.
