The price of stamps is going up on 25th March.

1st class will be 70p and 2nd class 61p.

I want to buy some before the price increase. Probably a silly question but is there anywhere that does offers on stamps?

    try E bay, but think you have to buy in bulk on there.

    Some stamp dealers do - but again, expect to buy 50-100 stamps or so.
    https://www.dauwalders.co.uk/discount-1st-class-stamps-for-postage---various-137740-p.asp comes out at 60p each though

    There was a thing in the news recently about people buying up old stamps on ebay and cleaning them and re-using them or people using "unfranked" stamps, which I think just means stamps that haven't been marked with an ink stamp, they just cut them out and re-use them.

    But if you google ebay unfranked stamps, you'll see what I mean, there's loads of them and they are pretty cheap.

    This is fraud though, so I wouldn't recommend it, but you know, each to their own.
