Default Anybody know of whats happened with the postage stamps?

I dont know anything about it, but i have heard that stamps dont get used on the post anymore, this was from my mum.....

But i dont know if its utter bullshit because how else would you send your post?

I need to know because i need to post some tickets to a member off of here.

If anyone could give me any information, would be much appreciated. Just want to know if its true or not, and if it is, what i have to do.

April - still stamps to post - they've just changed them a bit depending on how big the envelope is.

The post office themselves wont use stamps on parcels anymore, they use a new digital label printer that just shows date and cost etc, so dont worry, your mums not on crack.
