Use for Return Reply Envelopes

I use return reply envelopes from junk mail to wrap used feminine items that I don't want others to see in the trash.

I've sent valentines cards back before...they were left over from a neighborhood kid's school special.

I've also sent back empty replies, random notes, pet hair, gunk from sweeping, leaves, information on friends I did not really like and other random things.

While writing this I just thought of something...fill out all of the information with fake names then put the company address...this will get them to send junk mail to themselves *snicker*

As a side note, I got my first credit card at 15 by filling in bogus information (including 40 years of work history) but using my real name & address. I used the card for years (and yes, I paid all the payments).

Way to go Claudia-MD. I have been doing that for years. Maybe they will wake up one day and realize we DON'T WANT THAT STUFF!

I send these reply envelopes back with another company's junk mail enclosed. This requires that the company pay the postage without getting any sale. I also mail back all the business reply cards stuffed in magazines without completing the form. Just my little protest against Junk Mail....Hopefully, we will get a "Do Not Mail" list like the telephone "Do Not Call" list and that will put an end to this nuisance!
