Can't Miss It: Weekend Edition July 3-5
Weekend Theatre: July 3-5
The other day we popped into the Broadway post office looking for some stamps. But the stamp vending machine was gone, so we had to stand in a 12-person line to buy $1-ish of stamps. We hear that--in addition to uprooting friendly neighborhood mailboxes--the USPS is saving money by removing stamp vending machines from post offices across Washington. You can buy stamps at USPS.com, and they will mail them to you. Sometimes we hate this stupid new online world. We can still get stamps on a whim at Wells Fargo ATMs--maybe they'll move into delivering mail too. God knows the USPS hasn't impressed us there, either.

I buy my stamps at the Wells Fargo ATM too! This is stupid of USPS though. What, do they want us all to invest in Pitney Bowes personal machines or something?
That's the only reason I haven't closed my Wells Fargo account: stamps whenever I want 'em.
You know, I was going to buy stamps at the Wells ATM today, but I couldn't believe they were charging a 9 cent premium - per stamp! That's quite a burn.
@bilco: they're just trying to prep you for the next postage stamp rate hike. It's a service!
