I'm curious whether you have done this since the rate change
on anything weighing over 3 ounces. The rates and categories are
indeed wacky now.

My own approach is to keep a supply of $0.75 and $0.84 stamps
on hand, use a kitchen scale to weigh the letter/package,
and put on the approximately correct postage.
