Also, stores, banks, and restaurants want you to use their automated systems. They make more profit when you do.

Very often we get something the next day that we are in no need to get so quick.
For example my wife found some nail polish she wanted to try that cost $ 7.99 for a small bottle. Comes the next day from Utah.
How in the world did someone make any money at this? Obviously the post office is losing their shirt on the delivery end of this.
