It looks like Saturday delivery is going the way of the brontosaurus. What's your opinion?

I keep forgetting that you guys have Saturday delivery. Canada did away with it long before I was born.

It wouldn't surprise me if you were cut down to three or four days a week as more bills and messages are sent electronically. Junk mail people can hire their own delivery people.

Same here in Australia. The only complaint is the post office isn't open on weekends at all. I can live without saturday deliveries but it's a PITA to get to the post office during working hours.

we've not had Saturday delivery in Canada in my living memory - 43 yrs

Can't say I miss it :)

No maybe it might have meant more in the days when snail mail was the only way people had of keeping in touch with loved ones - but even snail mail is slowly going the way of the dinosaur

I'll miss getting two Netflix deliveries every week. Good thing more and more is becoming available online.

Only time we ever get weekend deliveries here is in the few weeks before Christmas. Can't say you'd miss it really.

I could do without Saturday mail as long as they don't close the post office on Saturday. Sometimes that's the only day one can pick up a package delivery there.

I favor a three-a-week schedule. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. I don't know how much fuel those standard delivery routes typically take, but if that can be cut down by half, and merely at a cost of half our junk mail arriving just a day later than it ordinarily would, then I say go for it.

(And anyone who would have a really serious problem with a one-day delay can just pay a little more for the Extreme-Priority-Teleport-It-There service.)
