How to send off & dispose junk mail...

[snowrat2004]

quite intriguing. i plan saving all the prepaid invelopes now... i dont have a digital camera tho, so i cant post the results

Today i am sending:

A mint - for fresh breath
2 cable twists - to keep cables tidy
A flashing christmas tree (broken) - flashes when your phone rings (or did)
An empty 'Lockets' wrapper - used when i had a sore throat
A cardboard liner from a box of 'Matchmakers' - i ate these earlier
An advert for a sex line - i've not called it but the recipient of the envelope might?
A plant ident tab - from my tank plants
An empty ceral bar wrapper - my girlfriend just ate this
A bank note from some dodgy country - can't remember where it came from

All this is being sent to some nice person at Screwfix direct

You guys are nuts - that's hillarious !

You should re-open General Talk so we can get more banter going

I must put some of these into effect though.

Oh too funny, I'd forgotten all about this. We just moved and I now have a stack of junk mail. I have now been inspired.

We used to do this at Uni! Ah the fun we had devising which company had annoyed us the most and could get the used tea bags!

What a great thread this is! Capital One have been sending me crap since before I was even old enough to have a credit card! They must pay!
Next one I get I will let you know what I send

A really fun one that I've read about is send a handful of pennies (this adds a lot of weight, so it costs the company more to mail it). Then call them after it's been received, tell them you made a mistake and demand they send you your money back.

Ooh... I found a freepost slip thing from Norwich Union Direct.... This might be fun I'll post up the fruits of my labour later, then post it when I can.

OK, contents are-

1 small button
A computers for schools voucher I cut into a pretty spiral shape
An unused free top up card with the words 'HI' and a smiley face carved into the scratch off panel
A rusty peg
The corner from a peanut packet
An out of date Claire's Earring Club card
A stick
Some glitter
I put instructions to open the slip thing, and filled it in
I also added 'if undelivered please return to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft + Wizardry' on the back
It says 'HO, HO, HO! Merry Christmas' on the front and I drew some pretty stars on it.
