Effective May 12, 2008, all postal rates with the United States Post Office will change.

The new rate for a first class stamp will be $.42

The rates for shipping via other methods will change as well.

One good new change is that shipping via Express Mail will switch to a zone system. That means that if you aren't shipping to someone very far away, Express Mail might be a good option for shipping plants.

To review the new prices at the Post Office, check out this information:

 Just a note...if you are

 Just a note...if you are planning on buying stamps before this date...buy the forever stamps...as they will be good even after the rates go up...and then you will not need to get a bunch of .2 stamps...that happened to me with the last rate change...

It's me vegemm "So then neither is he that plants any thing, neither he that waters; but God that gives the increase." 1 Corinthians 3:7

Thanks

for the reminder. Let's hope the new pricing will work to the advantage of GH traders!
