They might as well cut out Tuesday and Thursday too and just deliver the mail on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and really save some money.

I really wasn't joking when I said let's save even more money and cut mail delivery to Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I think most businesses could make this work too. But if they couldn't I guess you could have two classes of mail delivery commercial and residential. So the businesses on main street would get mail delivered Monday through Friday and residential addresses would get the their mail Monday, Wednesday and Friday. This would really save them money and I don't really care if I get my bills on Wednesday rather than Tuesday.
