I do the Postal food drive every year, mainly to help my wife out (postal carrier). We did it on Saturday. I could not believe the contrast to previous years. Had about 1 tenth of the last 5 years or so. When we dropped the food off at the food bank, dude said it’s the worst year he had seen. Something ain’t right. Not sure what, but something just don’t seem right.

I don't think I saw any advertisements for it this year. Usually I get at least two postcards advertising it, but I don't recall getting them this year. Did the USPS cut back to save money just counting on people remembering last year's drive and whatever public service announcements they might get on TV?

Good point. I did a search for news articles and it was on line. Like you, I didn’t see it on the local news. However, the postal carriers delivered bags and post cards a week before the food drive. Anyone who checked their mail would have seen it.
