they aren't suppose to do that. They are to suppose to tell you that the stamps are going up on *whichever date* & let you decide which ones you want to use.

They MUST have a sign up stating the value is going on up *whichever date*. Its usually a TP stype sign (it was the past 2 years).

If they try to sell you an old stamp (without the penny stamp) REPORT THEM! I ran into SOOO many customers coming to me asking when it went up, or I noticed they had old stamps & they said they bought them lst week or the daybefore & its been weeks to months after the stamps went up! There was a reason why I was one of the busiest postal outlest going. I had people traveling 20km just to go to my postal outlet My outlet was known for NOT screwing customers & telling the truth 100%.

I reported nearly 10 shops last year who screwed customers over My Canada Post reo was NOT happy about it, as it makes customers angry & use the postal office less & less

Canada Post is a good company, its the stupid outlets that don't care & piss everyone off



Edit: Forgot, they MUST let you buy the new stamps starting (usually around jan 1st). Were you able to buy the .51 stamps? if not let me know, I might not work at the PO anymore, but I still have MANY friends in the PO & in Canada Post (a well known Manager heheh)
