Funny Idea for junk snail mail

Just got this email ....

When you get ads in your phone or utility bill, include them with the payment. Let them throw it away.

When you get those pre approved letters in the mail for everything from credit cards to 2nd mortgages and junk like that, most of them come with postage paid return envelopes, right?

Well, why not get rid of some of your other junk mail and put it in these cool little envelopes!

Send an ad for your local dry cleaner to American Express.

Or a pizza coupon to Citibank. (I especially liked this!)

If you didn't get anything else that day, then just send them their application back!
If you want to remain anonymous, just make sure your name isn't on anything you send them.
You can Send it back empty if you want to just to keep them guessing!

Eventually, the banks and credit card companies will begin getting all their junk back in the mail.
Let's let them know what it's like to get junk mail, and best of all THEY'RE paying for it! Twice!
Let's help keep our postal service busy since they say e-mail is cutting into their business, and that's why they need to increase postage again!

Send this to a friend or two or three...or fifty....


p.s. Now if we could only find out how to call telemarketers at
home on Sunday night at 9:00.

Yep I fold up all their crap and put it in the return postage paid envelope, I add extra poo to it so its heavy overloading the prepaid return postage---let them pay to have it returned to them...

just too funny.....

have heard of peeps taping a return address to a brick, though I would not recommend this.

Remember that the postal workers in the US not only have one of the most stressful jobs but they also have been on the front lines in the new war. I think it all boils down to respect. Get above and beyond the junk wars. Better to shred the papers and put them into a compost pile. JMHO..... [1 P G ]
