Can you mail five pages on a forever stamp

According to the United States Postal Service (USPS), a Forever Stamp is a type of postage stamp that is valid for first-class mail weighing up to 1 ounce. The current price of a Forever Stamp is $0.55.

The USPS has a simple formula for calculating the cost of postage for mail weighing more than 1 ounce:

• Each additional ounce is $0.15

So, if you want to mail five pages, which is likely to weigh more than 1 ounce, you'll need to calculate the total weight of the pages and add the additional postage accordingly.

Here's a rough estimate of the weight of five pages:

• A standard 8.5 x 11 inch sheet of paper weighs about 5 grams (0.18 ounces)
• Five pages would weigh approximately 25 grams (0.88 ounces)

Since the pages weigh more than 1 ounce, you'll need to add the additional postage:

• 1 ounce = $0.55 (Forever Stamp)
• Additional ounce = $0.15
• Total postage = $0.55 + $0.15 = $0.70

So, to mail five pages, you would need to use at least two Forever Stamps, which would cost $1.10. However, if the pages weigh more than 2 ounces, you would need to add even more postage.

To be sure, you can weigh your pages on a scale or consult with a postal worker to determine the exact postage required.
