Interestingly, the Postal Rate Commission allowed the USPS to keep the additional ounce rate at 22 cents, but the USPS chose to lower it to 21 cents. That means a letter weighing over 1 ounce up to 2 ounces will remain 55 cents, and every ounce after that will be cheaper! For example, a letter up to 3 ounces is 76 cents instead of 77 cents! I have no idea why the USPS decided to do this, but I won't complain.
