Went to the PO this morning and what a surprise I had coming
I always put 5 stamps for 2.50 then pay her the 1.00 for the tracking for a total of 3.50 and she looks at me and says that will be 2.06 cents more and I said what u kidding and she says no effective today a 2.06 increase for shipping a bubble with tracking so now 5.56 to send a bubble.
Lots of PWE in the future I can see.

It had a top loader with 2 cards I it so whatever not very much right but it costs me 5.56 and she says a 2.50
and tracking would cost me this every time unless it wights more.
Totally unreal and they say they are losing money.

I use PayPal for shipping. It jumped from 2.66 to 3.09 for up to 4 oz based on one package I mailed today. There’s no way mailing at the PO jumped from 3.50 to 5.65.

That;s what I paid and going to talk to the post master tomorrow who was in a meeting 180 miles away today but I think there is something wrong here and will get to the bottom of this this week.

Dragonslayer that was what I was thinking but tomorrow I am going to find out as this will make anybody only shipping PWE.
But I will find out tomorrow one way or the other.

I mailed a padded envelope to PR today it it cost me $ 3.94 . The women said it looks like they are charging by zones.
 
The USPS Forever Stamp had a 10% price increase today - biggest in history.

EDIT: Anyone who hasn't been using paypal.com/shipnow has been wasting money.
 
The price is now determined on how far you are mailing. It is zone based as mentioned. Here is a tool that helps you figure out the zones based on the first three digits of the zip code.

Seems each year prices keep going up, this year was a big change though.

I expect more people to use PWE which I understand.
 
Hey guys I sent out about 5 letters today it cost me 5:53 to send a first class padded from Colorado to New Jersey it sent me or cost me 4:53 to send a first-class padded to Wisconsin so I don't know I know that the non mushy needs a $0.15 charge now and a first class letter is 55 2day priority also went up 2 $7 for an anything padded envelope don't know that's all I knows what they charge me about the same today but I find the 553 right on here and then the 453 so I believe it's probably Zone shipping
 
First off I want to apologize to KC Royals who this post offends him sorry about this thread.
Secondly went and had a long talk with my local Post masters and he explained this new system to me.
Everywhere u send is a different zone and a different price up to 4 oz and a different price above 4 oz;s for every zone.
So looks like a lot of PWE;s as he said a 4 oz to Califormia will cost me 5.56 and a 4 oz to Colo will cost me 5.23.

Use the link I posted to figure out how much it costs to send to anywhere in the country. I live in FL so for me it's going to cost the most mailing to the west coast.
