I wish I had planned ahead a bit more! I didn’t realize how much the nonmachineable stamps were going up this price increase go around. So, a non-machineable + postcard stamp + 2cents (I have about 1000 3 cent stamps I bought off of ebay ages back at about 50% of face value) would be a steal for meeting global postage.

Old price: $0.75 + $0.36 + $0.02 = $1.13
New price: $0.88 + $0.40 + $0.02 = $1.30

:woman_shrugging:t4: I do have some butterfly stamps that I can use for this, but I would have stocked up more :stuck_out_tongue:

Time to add stamps to your holiday gift list, USA postcrossers! They’ve announced another rate increase for January 2022. I’m all out of international stamps, so I’m going to stock up.
