Would You Miss Saturday Mail Delivery?

The Postal Service handles more than 44 percent of the world's mail volume — delivering more mail to more addresses and to a larger geographic area than any other postal administration in the world.

The U.S. Postal Service is reportedly announcing on Wednesday that it will stop Saturday first-class mail delivery by Aug. 1, reported CBS News. 

Mail personnel have delivered mail on Saturdays for 150 years, but the plan is to end regular mail service, while maintaining Saturday delivery for packages and express mail, said CBS News.

The move is the latest attempt by the cash-strapped federal department to save money. It has already cut employees and service, but still reportedly lost $ 16 billion last year.

What do you think about this idea? Would you miss Saturday mail service?
