Quoted from o-din:Glad I bought 5000 forever stamps back in 2007.
How many of those stamps will you still own when you die? I mean most people don't mail much anymore since the popularity of on-line payments has become common.
In my opinion US postage is one of the most under-priced services. People still bitch and moan about a few cents. The amount of stamps I use in a year costs much less than the price of a value meal at McDonald's.
