January 6th....... $0.39 Five per cent increase on all mail, including packages.
And please don't get me started on the postal service....or lack thereof.

Well that is just RIDICULOUS!! CRAZY!! Glad you said something or I'd have not known.

Am I the only person who didn't realize this?

Why is no one keeping track of these things????



HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICK!!!

Hey, first seating can get kinda crazy. I sat next to this table of REALLY loud, crazy, laughing people on SSMC05. They were always demanding lobster and creme brulee....

yeah...that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

We didn't demand - we just had an in with the server and the chef! Plus we shared didn't we?

 

[justmestace]

Rates go up Sunday. As of Monday morning the rate is 39 cents - I'm in the industry remember.

Uh oh...did I just open mouth insert foot with our beautiful, wonderful, lovely, smart, funny Moderator?

Happy Birthday Nick!

I hate buying stamps....so I usually do it only a couple times a year....and I get a bunch so I don't run out for awhile....

I currently have ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-ONE $0.37 stamps that will each need another $0.02 to go out! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

So now I need to order 362 $0.01 stamps!

No way - I'm in direct mail - we don't like the increase any more than the average consumer. It's not like I work for the post office.


BTW the last part was really brown nosing it young lady.

Yes...you did. That was very kind. And then you took incriminating photos of me and posted them on the internet!!

I knew the rates were going up in Jan. but didn't know the exact date. That's the reason that not everyone got the cute Christmas cookie stamps with their Christmas cards. I didn't want to be left with too many $.37 stamps so some people got non-Christmas stamps on their cards.

Kiki, did you ever use up the stamps that your husband accidentally bought?

Happy Birthday Nick!!!

You COUNTED them???? OMG that's the funniest thing I've heard all day. You should have made that a math lesson for Nick.
I got my extra $0.02 stamps weeks ago. na na na na na naaaaaaa

Guilty as charged!

Well, yeah...but 160 of them are still sealed in the packaging they came in from USPS.

Ya know, you go to www.usps.com and there should be a big thing on there

"WARNING....DON'T BUY 360 STAMPS RIGHT NOW....THE PRICE IS GOING UP SOON.....WE'RE DOING IT BECAUSE WE CAN!!! OH....AND DON'T EXPECT YOUR SERVICE TO GET ANY BETTER!"

She would claim she is working. But, she's probably booking ANOTHER cruise.......

At least it's only your marbles. ( and HH )



Of all the things I'VE lost, I miss my mind the most.
