Postal Rate Increase

Well everyone, the new USPS 1st Class rate of 39 cents goes into effect on Sunday, which means you need to do one of three things if you currently have any 37-cent stamps:

1. Get an equal amount of 2-cent stamps, one for each 37-cent stamp you still own.
2. Throw away all your remaining 37-cent stamps.
3. Quickly send a whole lot of mail before Saturday.

I want to go with the last option, but I know I’ll most likely end up settling for the second option.
