Free Money

Free Money!!!!

No, honestly.

Wanna know how?

It’s simple. I refer you to this site where it says:

Just a reminder that the price of both 1st and 2nd class stamps go up on Monday 3rd April. You might want to consider buying in advance - but only those with no value on them (i.e. 1st or 2nd). The lowest weight prices are both going up by 2p: to 32p and 23p”

I did exactly that. I bought £200 worth of stamps. This will save me 10% in the future BUT surely as retailers can sell stamps, it’s worth buying £50,000 worth and then you’re guaranteed 10% profit in addition to what you normally make…

I floated such an idea to the Post Office Manager.

He agreed.

So, here’s your chance – buy £10 for £9 and provided you can shift the stamps quickly, you’re onto a winner.

Thought: what about companies doing mailings – will they stockpile and then charge more?

Oxbow – no other site offers this!

Easy way of making money indeed. Assuming that you can sell large amounts of stamps to others quite fast after the price increase.

By the way, back in Holland we don't use 1st class and 2nd class stamps. Our stamps just say "39 cents". If the price would be increased to 44 cents, extra stamps with a value of 5 cents would be sold for people that still had the old 39 cent stamps.

Conclusion: It's easier to make money in the UK than in Holland. Oh well...
