pricier stamps The US Postal office is raising the price of stamps Monday, stamps will now be $0.41. Grrr! Again! More and more I think I'll just switch to DHL for all my custom artwork shipping. I usually ship the smaller boxes Priority Mail but by the time in I factor in insurance and delivery confirmation DHL is cheaper and usually gets there faster, the only bad part is then you have to buy the boxes.

These odd amounts of .41 are such a bother!!! # posted by  Anonymous : 2:22 PM   UPS gives us free boxes. They come in 2 sizes and they work great.
