New Year Brings Higher Postal Prices
<i> Associated Press</i>
WASHINGTON — It will cost 3 cents more to mail a letter starting Sunday.
The U.S. Postal Service is raising rates effective at 12:01 a.m. local time, including raising the price of a first-class stamp to 32 cents.
The price to mail a post card goes up a penny, to 20 cents.
But the extra charge for heavy letters is unchanged. That means while the first ounce of a letter will cost 32 cents, each extra ounce will still mean a 23-cent charge.
