I have had this happen before and am pretty sure that's how it works now.

That would seem to be an economical plus. Am I missing something?

It's also possible to buy larger quantities of forever stamps on eBay. Here's a free tool I just wrote (<a href="http://www.forever-stamps.com" rel="nofollow">Forever-Stamps.com</a>) that scans ebay to help find discounted forever stamps for sale. It usually only a few dollars savings, but in these times every bit counts!
