I hate the business reply cards- there are sometimes as many as 10 in one magazine. I write on the cards, "No BRCs!" and mail them back them- which costs them the postage without getting a sale.

After conquering the telemarketers with the Do Not Call List, I think this is the next area we will be focusing on in the US....the masses of junk mail that clog all of our mailboxes and kill trees!

For years I have mailed back to the junk mail sender all the inserts and EVERYTHING that was in their original envelope. I write in big red letters "TAKE ME OFF OF YOUR LIST" across the application section. I even send back the envelope it was mailed in. This is quite effective - that company doesn't send me any more junk. I could just recycle and/or shred the offending mail, but I get more satisfaction in making them pay for it!

You know what i do with junk mail. It don't cost them anything until you mail it back too them. If enough people do that they might slow down or stop mail them out all of the time. I always mail it back too them.
