Think ahead and order early! Takes 5-7 days to get stamps from Missouri shipping facility to San Diego. -

Just purchased stamps from the post office online thanks to this article! The $1.00 shipping and handling charge is less than the gas that I would have spent going to buy them at the actual location! Thanks!

You can even get stamps for below the face value! Buy them in a greater quantity from a dealer. They have so many they actually reduce the price below what the stamps originally were worth (sometimes), especially if you have $25 or more to spend all at once on a whole bunch.
