When we were in college, my wife and I wrote each other every day. We could afford it back then with 5 cent stamps and cheap paper. No way at today's price for stamps.

@cherokeepatti I buy stamps by the roll, so 100 stamps hit my credit card a heavy blow.

@exexec hadn’t been that long since I bought a 20-pack for less than $10…2017…

@cherokeepatti I buy the rolls to use in my grandfather's antique copper stamp dispenser. A roll lasts a long time.
