Question of the Day: Post Office Cuts

When was the last time you set foot inside a post office?

Posted by Patch Staff,

The U.S. Postal Service is set Tuesday to announce a list of 3653 post offices that could be shut down.

When was the last time you visited a U.S. Post office? Has competition from Fedex or United Parcel Service caused you to frequent post offices less?

Or has competition helped to improve the service and led you to use it more?
