Does anyone else send back empty envelopes that have prepaid postage?

I hate getting money solicitations from politicians/political groups. If they've included a no postage required return envelope I always send em back empty. Hey it relieves a small amount of annoyance and it helps out the USPS. :2razz:

Oh, come on. Stick in some coupons or something.
 
My favorite are the ones that send a nickel, quarter or the rare dollar bill. TYVM!


Winchester, you have too much free time!

The last thing I want to do is let someone that sends me junk know that I'm a real person. I just ignore it.

The political groups that call me get a full voicemail box.

I made about $10 from Arbitron one year. Their dollar bills must have stuck together and I got a stack instead of just one.

The envelopes are empty with no return addy. Unless they got my DNA off the envelope...

I think baking soda would add a lot more drama than just some coupons

Only if you are lacking a certain excitement in your life.....better to put you hand in the garbage disposal while it is running!?

I used to put my ex-wife's name on it. "What starts as a trickle becomes a flood"
 
Fill the paid returns with the other junk mail. It'd be rude not to!
 
I re-label it and use it. But then again, I'm cheap.
 
The last time the GOP sent me something, I thought about sending the envelope back empty ... but those wiseguys didn't have a prepaid envelope.

Darnit.
 
You guys are rookies.

Tape the envelope to a good size box and fill the box with old newspapers or something heavy, then drop at PO.

They will ship it and charge the boxes rate.

Armatures.

Amateurs / I hit spell check and didn't pay attention, thanks.

You beat me to it.
I can't remember who it was, but someone was temporarily famous for shipping BRICKS that way.
 
You should include a request for money sent to a PO Box.

See if anything ever comes back.
