    It occurred to me yesterday that I only check my mail 3 or 4 times a month. Unless I'm expecting something, there's no reason to. I receive all my bills online.

    I know my mailman hates me because every time I check my box, it's so full of crap that I can barely pull it out. 95% is just junk that goes straight to the trash can. The other 5% is paper copies of bills that I've already paid online. Half of it isn't even addressed to me, it's addressed to "current resident."

    I wish I could do what Kramer tried to do and just stop my mail all together.

    I only check it about once a week, like you said earlier, all of my bills are paid online, and I use "Pageonce" app to help me manage everything.

    Check mine every day since it's right in front of my door.

    Daily, but only because I walk by it. When I was in college and had to go to the PO on campus, I would check it once a week unless I expected something. When I had a box at my condo complex, I checked it a couple of times a week.

    Daily.

    But I would have no problem with once a week service.

    Lazy ass. :eek:

    What, you have a shared mailbox, or are you just too lazy to check it when you get off your car every weekday when you get home from work? :p

    I check it EVERY DAY to maybe 1 or at least twice a week because Mrs. SwoLy or my daughters have already checked it before I get home.

    Hey, ima, good news for you, lazy ass! No more having to pick up "crap" on Saturday:

    Postmaster says days are numbered for Saturday mail delivery

    Every couple days. I get a lot of junkmail that I have to unclog.

    I forget I have a mail. It's never anything important. I check my email at least twice a day though.

    Never, and it's right next to the door.

    My girlfriend brings it in, but I never look at it. If it's for me, I already knew about what it says a week ago.

    2-3 Times a week. Would be fewer, but my box is really small, and it fills up fast.

    That's about where I'm at, box is real small so 2 or 3 times a week is about right. I always have it in my mind I'm getting something cool in, but am disappointed each and every time.
