cost of stamps going up again!

i just found out the post office is increasing their postage rates again (read here). didn't they JUST go up?! so for all you brides-to-be, you have until may 12th to buy the "forever" liberty bell postage at .41 a piece (those are the only stamps at that rate that the post office will accept after the rate change). i know the liberty bells aren't as pretty as the wedding stamps, but at least you'll save a few bucks! if you want something more special, there are custom stamp options available from companies like stamps.com and zazzle. it doesn't look like they have .42 cent options yet but hopefully they'll get on board soon so you can avoid buying pesky 1 and 2 cent stamps to accompany your cool custom stamp. i'll post more info as it comes along!
