    Canada post has issued stamps

    Some cool stamps for a collector. And they even included the Argos.

    Oh those are very sweet. Must get some for my CFL collection and to use. It would be fun to get TiCat ones and put them upside down and write dumb notes beside them on your envelope. haha.

    Good to see some respect from another Canadian institution. Now if we could get all the Toronto media onside.

    I picked up a nice 40 page catalogue for free at the post office yesterday. It has a picture of the Grey Cup on the cover and the first half of it is all about all the CFL souviners that they sell. It's too bad that Ottawa wasn't back in the league this year since it would've been nice to see some stamps for them as well.

    Had to stop by a post office in Mississauga yesterday, they had 2 displays of stamp dispensers setup, 1 Argos and 1 Ticats. They looked like mini mail boxes, pretty cool.

    Looks like Canada Post has removed all their CFL stamps from their website. They were still selling them last week and since they don't actually have a price on the stamp itself, I assume they were removed to prevent people from stocking up on them to beat the price increase.

    They've removed and stopped selling all stamps.

    Thanks for posting the link, Mulder. I was going to purchase some more CFL stamps last week but decided to wait until January. Looks like they'll put the stamps back on sale once the price increase takes effect and they can charge the higher price.

    Canada Post has 25% off all CFL merchandise (not including stamps, of course) with free shipping. Just use promocode GREYCUP. I'm not sure how long this promotion will last.

    I just received an email from Canada Post stating that they'll issue Ottawa RedBlacks stamps starting June 19th.
