An Intriguing Idea from… the Post Office?

An alert reader sent me this timely article from the Washington Post on the “forever stamp.” The idea is that the stamp is always worth whatever the first class postage rate costs. Apparently, that’s now 39 cents, which is bad news because I recently mailed an envelope with a 37 cent stamp. With the “forever stamp”, I would have been fine. Now I probably have to wait for the postman to return my mail.
