Tired of Junk Mail

OK, I register under the Mail Preference Scheme, but that doesn’t stop the junk leaflets or the tossers from Foxtons and the like.

Such a familiar sight.
Guest 22-Feb-2008 18:30
I feel your pain!!
Guest 22-Feb-2008 13:33
You are not alone. Great idea for the challenge! Love the colors.
Heidi Jonker22-Feb-2008 11:53
I know that feeling, great interpretation!!
Guest 22-Feb-2008 10:44
What a load of crap(!) Literally! And there's your plea for help in the midst of it all - hope the MPS see this!
Laura Sebastianelli22-Feb-2008 04:45
well done and right on!
Roe..22-Feb-2008 03:36
keep the Chinese Takeaway..oh and I just spotted the Ballet Theatre save that one for me ;)
Jonathan Popp22-Feb-2008 03:31
Clever! If any of it has prepaid postage I would mail them so of the other junk mail for Ha Ha's
Russ Rose22-Feb-2008 03:22
looks like some of the same stuff that we get.
carol j. phipps22-Feb-2008 02:40
Yikes!
Laryl22-Feb-2008 01:51
I agree.. tired of junk mail!
Sam Stevenson22-Feb-2008 01:39
Brilliant concept for "tired"!
Bill Ewart Jr22-Feb-2008 01:05
I'm with you!
Sheila22-Feb-2008 00:55
Yours is the same as ours with different names on. It's a terrible waste.
Barry S Moore22-Feb-2008 00:20
Quite a statement
Guest 21-Feb-2008 22:55
Clever slant on the topic.
I reckon they send you MORE when you register!!
Stu21-Feb-2008 22:53
I know there are things I probably should care about more, but I am fully in agreement - junk mail really gets on my nerves. Never-ending, and yes, a sizeable percentage is from Foxtons. However I'm interested to know where Henry Winkler is performing live!
Cindi Smith21-Feb-2008 22:12
Use them for fire starter! That's what I do! Or send back to them C.O.D.!
Phillip Normanton21-Feb-2008 21:00
Cor, what a lot of friends you have sending you all those letters :)
J. Scott Coile21-Feb-2008 20:51
If only they could target our REAL interest!
Robin Reid21-Feb-2008 20:41
Amen Brother. It gets real old real fast. Good idea.
Carole Stevens21-Feb-2008 20:18
I agree keep the food ones and get the shredder out!
laine8221-Feb-2008 20:08
Keep the chinese takeaway menu & recycle the rest...it's tiresome I know but someones gotta do it.
Guest 21-Feb-2008 20:06
I never get an apology in my junk mail, that's a keeper!!!
Dan Chusid21-Feb-2008 19:21
Fodder for the fireplace!
Lee Rudd21-Feb-2008 19:07
you need a big dog!!!
Norbert Fortelny21-Feb-2008 18:40
At least you got an apology, that seems nice.
Great idea.
Maaike Huizer21-Feb-2008 18:33
Yes, I am too!!! Great entry.
Rose Atkinson21-Feb-2008 18:30
Blimey... you been saving it up all week ? I do hope that's not one day's worth !
Nicki Thurgar21-Feb-2008 18:22
Yes! I can identify with that, it's terrible isn't it?!
Máire Uí Mhaicín21-Feb-2008 18:21
I wish I could've been so imaginative. I just dumped a load of those in the paper bin! Including some referendum bumpf about the Lisbon Treaty.
Ann...21-Feb-2008 18:17
Oh! I hope that lot didn't arrive all on one day!!!!!!
Adalberto Tiburzi21-Feb-2008 18:07

Jola Dziubinska21-Feb-2008 18:05

Zak21-Feb-2008 18:01
