Regarding Potential US Rate Hike Postage issues.
Regarding Potential Postage issues.
In the US we have Forever stamps. They are first class stamps that remain current no matter when you purchased them. In other words I purchased Forever stamps a few years ago at 42 cents each; they were still current when the postage rate went up to 44 cents. They will still be current after the new postage rate hike in January.
I haven't contacted the post office to see if I can place Forever stamps exclusively on my return envelope from the swap. My plan is to go to the (US) Post Office today and ask. I'm hoping the answer is yes. That would take care of the postage hike issue.
I will be including a few Forever stamps with my FQs. They will not be affixed to the return postage. So in the event the postage for my new FQs is too low, Carsey can use the stamps to meet the postage requirements. If the postage is fine she can return the stamps to me. This applies to FQs sent through the US postal service only.
If any of you have already thought of this and the (US) Post Office says it's fine, please let us know.
Thanks! :0)
