1|1|???? |Joaniebott|joaniebott@AOL.com|09:26:16|01/24/2021|
I thought every 1/2 ounce after the first ounce was 21¢? For years now
Joanie 2|2|Last time postage rate went up, 2nd oz went down to 15 cents--now it went back up up.|SandyC|sacoates1@msn.com|10:05:06|01/24/2021|

6|4|Sue, I saw it in my Google news feed a couple weeks ago.|SandyC|sacoates1@msn.com|10:50:16|01/24/2021|
so thought I'd share the news on here.
I think a lot of people just put on an extra stamp if it seems a little heavier envelope which is a big waste of $!
I myself send out a lot of heavier envelopes with my drawings, etc. so use the 2nd oz stamp a lot.
And I think we are all about saving $.

8|3|Interesting..........|Joaniebott|joaniebott@AOL.com|12:22:13|01/24/2021|
2 weeks ago I bought 20 "additional ounce" stamps and paid 21¢ each for them

10|4|.21 is the international rate ...|Jorainna|jorainna@aol.com|23:31:38|01/24/2021|
... 11|1|I have 2 Yellow Butterfly ones left ...|Jorainna|jorainna@aol.com|23:34:01|01/24/2021|
... wonder if the work like the forever stamp for the two ounces? There is no price on the stamp. It just says non-machineable surcharge. 12|2|Yes|Elsie|another.one4me@yahoo.com|06:00:18|01/27/2021|
It does. Those butterflies r two ounces 13|3|LOL|Joaniebott|joaniebott@AOL.com|09:43:31|01/27/2021|
Guess I have been paying the wrong prices for a while!!
I hate the new stamps that do not have prices on them - my postcards stamps are pretty little shells but have no clue their value
Joanie 14|4|A postcard stamp is now 36 cents, up from 35 cents.|SandyC|sacoates1@msn.com|10:21:41|01/27/2021|

15|4|I think you'd still be able to use that postcard stamp...|SandyC|sacoates1@msn.com|10:23:47|01/27/2021|
as long as it doesn't have a price on it--then you'd have to add the appropriate amount of small cent stamps.
