It's not just gas -- stamps get more expensive too

Gas isn't the only thing that got more expensive today.

Mailing a letter will now cost you more. That's because the price of first-class mail stamps went up –– again –– to 42 cents.

It was just a year ago that prices skipped from 39 cents to 41 cents.

The “Forever” stamps, introduced last year for 41 cents, will still work for first-class mail, even after today's rate change.

There are rate changes across the board; to see them all, visit the USPS Web site.
