Should I buy stamps offline or online?

It depends on your urgency and volume: Offline (Costco, Walmart, USPS Post Office): Best if you need stamps immediately, e.g., within 2 days. You’ll pay standard price, but you’ll have them in hand. Online (USPS.com, authorized dealers): Best if you buy in bulk. You may find safe discounts (usually under 30%), and it saves time for businesses or frequent mailers.

How big of a discount is safe?

There’s no absolute “safe” discount, but here’s the rule of thumb: Discounts over 50% are guaranteed fake. Some shady sellers even mislabel the official price (e.g., claiming “original $0.66” then selling for $0.20+). Using counterfeit stamps is a federal crime, and your mail will be rejected. Stick with small discounts (10–30%) from authorized dealers or trusted retailers.

Picked up some Forever stamps with floral designs for sending thank-you notes after my daughter’s graduation. The colors were beautiful, and I appreciated how quickly they shipped. Definitely recommend buying online—it saved me a trip to the post office.
