It is Official: Postage Costs More

It is Official: Postage Costs More: "he average 1.7-percent increase did not affect First Class mail but it did affect standard mail used by nonprofits, including letters, flats, non-flat machineables, as well as library mail retail. The increase was an average 1.7 percent but can vary within classes and subclasses of mail.

Conway said the average increase within classes used by nonprofits is likely to be less, depending on the types of presorts used when mailing. “Nobody likes price increases but these are pretty darn reasonable,” he said."
