Forever Stamps, New 64 Cent Stamp And More
The postage value of the Forever Stamp is always the First-Class Mail single-piece 1 oz. letter price in effect on the day of use. You can still purchase Forever Stamps through May 10, 2009 at the .42 rate and they will be good for .44 cents postage starting May 11th. One-ounce letters with Forever Stamps will not require additional postage. You will pay additional postage if the letter weighs more than one ounce, if it is subject to the non-machinable surcharge or if the mail-piece is larger than letter size.
Do you have stamps at home with no denomination and you don’t know what the value of these stamps are? If so you can go to Postal Explorer at pe.usps.com. It lists non-denominated stamps, stamped cards and stamped envelopes and their postal values.The price of the Breast Cancer Research Stamp will not change but remain .55 each.
A .64 cent stamp will soon be available. It is not a new price category but offers the convenience of paying postage for one ounce nonmachinable letters, such as square greeting cards and invitations, with a single stamp. The new .64 stamp will be available June 15, 2009
