This important item is set to increase in price by 14 per cent in October, and money saving expert Martin Lewis has urged people to stock up on them before this happens.
Martin Lewis' popular website, Money Saving Expert, has urged people to stock up on a common item, currently worth 75p, before they rise in price.
MyLondon reports second class stamps for standard letters are set to stay the same, priced at 75p - but they will increase in price in April next year. Second class stamps for large letters will increase in price from £1.15 to £1.55 - an increase of 35 per cent. The MoneySavingExpert.com founder said: "For years, every time stamps go up in price I've suggested people stock up and bulk-buy in advance, as provided the stamp doesn't have a price on it and instead just says the postage class, it's still valid after the hike.
"So you may as well stock up now, even if it's just for Christmas cards for the next few Christmases."
