	Having a senior moment...We moved just after Christmas last year and I'm sorting out cards etc. I have a few 2nd class stamps in my cards box, presumably from last year as they are barcoded and not sure when barcodes were introduced. I assume I can still use these?

	I would think if they are barcoded you can use them. barcoded stamps were issued February 2022

	You can use bar-coded stamps, and also non barcoded "Special" stamps, such as Christmas stamps.
