(CNN) -- The U.S. Postal Service raise the price of mailing a first class letter.

A Forever Stamp will now cost 60 cents. 

In addition, to the two-cent price increase on first class stamps, other postal services will also cost more.

Everything from postcards to certified mail, to money order feels will also be subjected to rate hikes.

The postal service says the rate hike amounts to about a six-point-five percent increase across the board.
