Citizens get ready; your mail delivery may be seeing a change soon.

According to industry officials, on Monday the United States Postal Service is expected to propose changes in the standard for first-class mail delivery to two-to-five-days.

As is stands right now, first-class mail for envelopes and packages weighing 13 ounces or less is delivered in three days or less.

All of this is part of cost-cutting measure, and it's not clear when the plan will take effect.
