USPS Announcement: Post Office to Stop Delivery On Saturdays

Impact

The USPS is announcing Wednesday that it'll stop Saturday delivery in attempt to control costs. However, post offices would remain open on Saturdays for dropping off, buying postage stamps, etc. USPS also plans to continue Saturday delivery of packages (a growing part of the delivery business). But hours likely would be reduced at thousands of smaller locations. Canceling Saturday mail deliveries will save USPS $2 billion annually, according to congressional and postal officials.
