Forever Stamps Just Got More Expensive | Denver News

Starting Sunday, July 14, the price of a first-class Forever stamp is jumping from 78 cents to 82 cents — just the latest in six price hikes over five years, pushing costs up 34% since 2021. The USPS, struggling with rising expenses and falling mail volume, faces a $9 billion loss in FY2025, fueled by past laws like the 2006 Postal Accountability Act. While they claim prices remain globally competitive, regulators warn of worsening financial and delivery woes. The Postmaster General hints at future hikes, possibly pushing stamps to 90–95 cents, as the agency weighs price increases, cost cuts, or boosting sales. Good news: any Forever stamps you’ve already bought? Still valid — that’s the whole point. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
