LIMA, OH (WLIO) - Getting some of your mailing and shipping done with the United States Postal Service is now a little more expensive.
New postage rates went into effect yesterday. Stamp prices are up again, the second time in six months, to 63 cents from 60 cents. Don't worry, you can still use your old stamps now despite the price increases.
Some shipping products actually lowered in price to help consumers, such as small and medium flat-rate boxes dropped a few cents, but large flat-rate boxes went up 35 cents. Regular, legal and padded flat-rate envelopes also dropped in price.
