I have an organization that insists on sending me unwanted and offensive junk mail. this is a very well funded organization and I have asked nicely to be removed from their mailing list, the junk still shows up.
well today I got some more, and as I was walking over to throw it in the fire, I saw an old ford 390 flywheel rusting away, and I thought to myself, how could I better use the business reply mail envelope (postage will be paid by addressee) than simply heating the house, but to dispose of unwanted junk?
I dont think the post office will take the old sofa in the kids room, but if I tape the envelope to the flywheel, they should take that I think...
I dunno, I'm starting to look at all my unwanted junk mail in a new light...:D

Let us know if the post office takes the flywheel (why not give it a shot) if they do everyone should do the same with junk around the house.
I would asssume you would have to wrap it with paper and tape it securely.

I put the junk they send back into their Pre-Paid envelopes (nothing that can point to me :D ) and send it back home ;)

Bricks are the best thing to send. They wrap easily.

yeah, I was thinking the cracked 429 head would be easier to wrap...
I usually send empty envelopes back, I'm just tired of dealing with these people.

If you do send something back like that with a "postage paid by addressee" label on it, and its not even going to get to the original sender, nor will they even pay postage on it. They do not have to pay postage on peices that were returned but not used in the proper manner, i.e. sending bricks, flywheels, lawn mower parts, couches etc. The only person your screwing is your postman who would have to lug that to his truck. it gets dumped as soon as it gets sorted at the post office.

Send post paid envelopes back with your name/address/sucker number insert circled and request removal from their sucker list. Works for me.
