Pollination stamps which went on sale June 29, 2007, normally would be kept on
sale for a one year period. In some cases, local post offices will continue to
sell these stamps with the caveat that you'll need to add postage for the new
rate. Many of the Post Offices though will return them for destruction because
of the new rate adjustment next Monday. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
