Bar coded stamps

No choice offered, my DH got what the machine printed out. Luckily, they will get used up before January, but it’s rather naughty of the PO to do this - they need to sort out their machines to produce the new stamps.

They are using up all there old stock, I was given a choice at the post office, old or new.

New (very large) can be used and will be the only ones as from January next year. I sent ALL my old stamps back to the post office using one of their on-line forms, first, and second class, plus a lot denominational, and all were exchanged by them for these new stamps.

That’s a possibility. ?

Perhaps the machines have not yet been converted to the new size.

I suppose they could be using up old stock, but these were purchased from the main post office in town, whereas the ones with the bar code that we had before these came from our local PO.

They are huge!

I bought some for postcards too. They're huge aren't they?!

Guess they're using up stock.
I was given bar-coded ones at our local PO last week. Then used one on a postcard - need to stick stamp on before writing address next time as it took up more room of course!
