Postage rates going up again :(

From the bbc website-

The price of a first-class stamp for a standard letter will go up from 46p to 60p on 30 April
A second-class stamp for a standard letter will go up from 36p to 50p on the same date
A first-class stamp for a large letter weighing up to 100g will rise from 75p to 90p
A large letter sent second-class will cost 69p, rather than 58p
Parcels, franked mail, and recorded post will also be going up in price


Looks like we are going to have to start charging more for postage for sending our nappies-boo!

Bloody hell that's a bit of a price jump!

Massive price hike - thats just ridiculous.

Flipping heck thats insane!!!

We all know they go up every year but OMG that is a crazy amount of increasing. Time to boycott RM I think.

But MPs heard that some people would be safe from price rises this Christmas

The plans, which have yet to be finalised, would see people on Pension Credit, or Employment and Support Allowance being eligible to buy stamps for the festive period in 2012 at Christmas 2011 prices.

WHY???

Huge increase but with the cost of petrol at an all time high its understandable.

Yes, but they've been losing money for years and years, it needs a shake up from the inside, not just shove the prices up and make everyone else pay for their mess.

i've been looking for the parcel prices but can't find them
