Just got back from the Post Office and was informed the prices on all the Priority boxes went up. Don't know where I was during this but this is the first time I've heard of it myself.

Old Price New Price

$5.80 $5.95
$12.35 $12.70
$17.45 $17.90




Just a FYI..

Print your postage online and it is still 11.30 for MFRB, as of yesterday anyway.

I print all my postage online and end up saving quite a bit of money when you ad it all up.

That's funny because I just heard on the news that the usps was going to lower the rates a bit to drum up some more business.

That was for commercial customers. Not you and I.

Oh really. That sucks the news didn't mention anything like that.

Nonetheless, there is a decent discount using an on-line account with USPS.

BTW, an account with UPS has certain advantages, too.

Can't send MOs, though.

Maybe not as a snap shot but in incremental terms it is. My friend in California used to send me small flat rate boxes at USD12-13.00. That was 18 months ago. They are now closer to USD24.00.
