A reminder, postage rates are increasing January 26, 2014.

The good news is that USPS is NOT increasing the Flat Rate
Priority Mail rate (at least for small & medium boxes), so
continue bombing with utter abandon. :-)

However, I'm not sure whether USPS will continue to offer the
reduced rate if you get Priority postage online. I checked
their website & found no info about that. Does anyone here
know if the online reduced price will stay in effect?

The change is only for 1st class rates. Priority rate changes aren't announced until much later in the year.

I buy stamps. Still do all my bills by hand and mail through USPS.

I do too, I am going to run out tomorrow and buy 1000. That will last me 5 years, and save me $30! :-)

I prefer it when those stamps lick me, yet I remain unbeatable.

Flat Rate did change. I paid an extra .10 cents a few minutes ago... $5.25 small flat rate box instead of the previous $5.15.

Not that big of a deal :-) x 5

Large FRB - $15.80*
Medium FRB - $11.30*
Small FRB - $5.25*

* - online pricing
