This afternoon, it was reported that the U.S. Postal Service has released a list of more than 3,600 post offices nationwide that it plans assess whether they should close in an effort to curb costs.
Westwood's two branches - one on High Street and one on Washington Street in Islington - were not among those listed.
With email, e-bills and online stamp sites, U.S. Post Offices have seen dwindling numbers.
So, for today's question, we're wondering: When was the last time you were in the Westwood Post Office, and how often do you go?

I go once a week to mail things and purchase stamps. I like the fact that you can ask a question; they are really helpful. I do only use the one on High Street.

I go to the Post Office at least once a week, if not more. I send multiple certified mailings, send packages during the Christmas Season, and buy stamps on a regular basis. I try not to give my business to UPS, FedEx, DHL, or any independent shipper or provider of postage. I personally know many employees of the USPS, and wish to see their employment continue.
People still appreciate hand-written or typed notes, trust me!
