Martin Lewis' Money Saving Expert website has urged all Brits to stockpile a 68p household item before Monday April 3. The warning comes days before price hikes will see the cost of the commonly-used essential rise.
While stockpiling is not usually encouraged, the Money Saving Expert says stocking up on stamps could save people a considerable amount of money. From Monday April 3, the cost of stamps is set to rise in the UK.
First-class stamps will rise from 95p up to £1.10 - a difference of 15p. The price of second-class stamps is also set to increase from 68p up to 75p - making for a 7p increase.
