The cost of a first-class stamp will increase from 46 cents to 49 cents on Sunday.
Buy your "forever" stamps before the increase.
What bugs me about this is the relative lack of publicity about this, and the difficulty of finding out information about it.
One of the best sources seems to be Wikipedia, ironically.
