Post Office News

Just a few reminders surrounding changes at the post office.

The postal rates went up March 31. Regular letter stamps are on a two tier system.

Here are the current prices for quick reference - all before tax:

Domestic stamps: $1.00 each when you buy them in singles, or

$0.85 each when you buy them in booklets of 10

Letters weighing 30-50 grams and US stamps are $1.20

oversized letters under 100 grams are $1.80

International stamps are $2.50 each

Also to prevent more waste coming to Thetis island please contact me at the Post Office if you don't wish to recieve any flyers (Unaddressed Admail). A lot of people are leaving flyers on the table by the Postal boxes. Please take them home with you as the wind tends to blow them around. There used to be a plastic bag for the flyers but too many times people were dropping their garbage (ie: Apple cores, popsicle stcks, tin cans...etc) into the bag.

Thanks all!

Kevin, your friendly neighbourhood postmaster
