I have probably cut my usage of stamps by 90% in the past 10 years. And 90% of those are used for Christmas cards.
Interesting. The Amenities Fee/Trash/Water/Sewage bill can now be paid online, saving you a stamp. But the “convenience fee” or whatever they call it for doing that is, as I recall, around $3. Cheaper to write a check and use a Forever stamp.
