It’s Christmas in July 2023 – along with fireworks and celebrations this month. With the new month, quarter, and second half of the year we can get ahead of our planning for Christmas Cards along with writing notes. Whether we decide to write and address our cards now – and mail later or mail them this month I hope you’ll consider joining me in trying it out this month.
Christmas in July 2023: Postage rate increase begins July 9th
You may want to go ahead and get your stamps now AHEAD of a July 9, 2023 postage rate increase. There is going to be a three-cent increase for a First Class Mail Forever stamp; it will be 66 cents instead of 63 cents. In addition, the Domestic postcard postage rate will be 51 cents each instead of 48 cents.
Happy July 4th 2023!
