Forever Stamps Jump to 82 Cents | Augusta Georgia News

Your mail just got more expensive—starting this Sunday, Forever stamps jump from 78 to 82 cents, with postcards and international mail following suit. That’s a 5% hike since last year and a 100% increase since 2006. The Postal Service blames financial woes, reporting a $2 billion loss this quarter, shrinking mail volume, and even cutting retirement fund contributions to stay afloat. They’re planning annual hikes through 2028, potentially pushing a stamp to 96 cents by year’s end. And despite this compromise, officials warn they could run out of cash in months.
