The Forever Stamp stamps out rate hike increases for sending a piece of mail, no matter how long you wait to mail your letter. This is great news to consumers since in the past, stamps would expire, resulting in a mad-and-aggravating dash to scrounge up a few extra 2 cent stamps just to be able to send a piece of mail.
In fact, there has been so much excitement about the new Forever Stamp that there has even been talk about investing in copious numbers of stamps. However, this is not a recommended investment.
