most drug stores (CVS, Walgreens, etc) sell stamps.

Some ATMS sell them. At least, some Bank of America ATMs sell them.

Wainwright Bank ATMs sell them, but only to Wainwright customers.

Nearest Catholic church is St. John's, on Mass. Ave. across from Day Street. You can't miss it, it's huge.

Also, the Day Street post office is open Saturday mornings until 1. The Porter Square one , on Mass. Ave., is open until 2. I think Harvard and Central Square post offices are open later than ours, both on weekday evenings and Saturday afternoons.

You can buy stamps online for face value plus $1 handling fee per order.

There's also St. Clement's Catholic church at the corner of Warner St. and Boston Ave. in Medford - it about a minute walk past the Powderhouse rotary.

If you are willing to go the distance, I attend St. Paul's Church in Harvard Square... they have a ton of times for Mass, are close to the Square (on the corners of Bow and Arrow Street) and are home to the Boston Archdiocesan Choir School (so Mass M-W & F mornings have the Boy's choir and the 11am Mass on Sundays has the boys and Men's Schola). And the priests are good people. I've been there since October now, and I love it.
