After being sick for a week I went out and checked the mail.
This picture represents approximately one-third to half of the contents. It is just the catalogs that we got which are junk – and I removed the duplicates. There are about three-four catalogs/magazines we receive that we like to look at – also not in this stack.
There is another stack, equally big, which is coupons, flyers, remarkably few political pieces and other more difficult junk to track.
I am currently on the dmachoice.org website attempting to stem the tide. To say I am flabbergasted and frustrated with the amount of junk that clogs our mailbox is an understatement.

Since this CR– enjoys a cut-rate from the US post office (why?) is it any wonder that our first class postage rates keep going up, up, up!!??
I can suggest one item by which the Post Office department might become at least self supporting at lower than the current first class rates.

It’s not just the U.S. We have gotten junk mail everywhere, except Italy when we rarely got the mail, hee hee. In France people put a, “pas de pub” (no publicity-literally) on their mailboxes if they don’t want junk mail. It works too. Here we still get it, but much less than you!

Just one word of caution, many times my “real” mail has been entangled inside the “junk” mail.
