Cut price of stamps for all
i RECENTLY received from the Royal Mail a leaflet advising people who receive Pension Credit, Employment and Support Allowance or Incapacity Benefit that they can buy up to 36 stamps in either books of six or 12 at Christmas 2011 prices. The offer is between November 6 and Christmas Eve.
There is a form to fill in for those eligible to hand to the Post Office with proof of eligibility.
