can u mail me some 2 cent stamps from the UK

[sidewinder]

I've just got 'first class' and 'second class'. Not sure what that is in cents..

Yes I stood in line to mail some packages this morning . . .about twenty minutes. I didn't need 2 cent stamps, but most everyone ahead of me did.

I knew weeks ahead of time that the rate was going up. . . ! I guess I was alone!

Its definitely been a pain in the ass at the PO lately, between holiday shipping and now the postage increase. Last time, I used the automated machine thingy for my package shipping, which is great because its as if no one understands what it does and you can beat a huge line in a minute or two.

Now with the two cent increase, if things don't improve, I am thinking about using my last half packet of .37 stamps two at a time til they're gone, then buy a new roll at the new price. Call it my way of helping the USPS fight that never-ending operating deficit. And, keep my sanity by avoiding those lines.

Just offering my "2 cents" here - that's insane!

Just buy a whole new book of 39 cents stamps at a grocery store then stop at the post office in a couple weeks to get your 2 cents stamps.

No big deal!

See, Marty? THIS is why I'm thinking about over-stamping anything I mail in the near future!

I wonder what they'd do if you tore up an unused .37 stamp into three or four parts and used those...

Meanwhile, I think i still have a pile of .02 stamps left over from the last price hike.

I remember some comedian saying a few years ago how terrible it was that we had to pay something crazy like 33 cents to have a letter mailed a lousy 3000 miles!
