Forever (Ugly) Stamps

May 11, 2007

Heidi links to a LifeHacker article about the new “Forever Stamps” which can be purchased for 41 cents but will remain good for sending first-class letters “forever” (or until the USPS goes belly-up).

Now, I understand that this is a good investment. But these stamps are ugly. The only time I send items in the mail anymore are for personal letters (and I do write a lot of them)… and unless I were desperate I’d never use this stamp. Philately may be dying, but why kick it when it’s down? Use a real stamp people…
