Must have had my head in the sand for over a month - I didn't realise that domestic letters are now $1.20 instead of $1.10. Have been posting out at the old rate all this time. Normally there is a big hoohaa when prices go up, but I didn't see anything. ☹️

You are right. I just checked a letter with a small item I received last week and it has an additional 10-cent stamp.

Yes, we realised a couple of weeks after the prices went up - only because we were checking the dimensions of a tracked envelope and noticed the price had increased.
I remember something on the news late last year that increases had been approved, but nothing later saying that they were being instigated, or on what date.

My PO had a notice prominently displayed from early December

I purchase by the 20 x booklet - quite a few to save the trip.
Now have to make it up with 10 cent stamps.
