I get those at least once a month as well and it looks so official too. The ones I get come with a pre-paid envelope to mail it back to them. I like to fill that envelope with glitter and send it back. This way who ever opens it gets a nice messy desk!


Hahaha I sent garbage in a few envelopes, you know like oh pieces of meat that I'd trimmed off from supper and threw in a small sandwich bag (not a ziplock lol), a few stones lying around etc. Made it real heavy and then threw it in the mailbox. I've not gotten an email from that company again. I wrote on the email that next time it will weight 2 times as much and 2 times that again every time they sent me another one lol. They gotta pay the postage no matter what you through in there lol.

I've heard of people actually putting some really nasty things in them too that I won't go into, use your imagination lol. But it worked! Now if only we could do that with emails! LOL

How about cold calls. You don't want to call me if I have time on my hands. Two nights ago I got a call about renewing my Readers Digest which I don't have a subscription to. I had the guy convinced that I only get the magazine for the pictures because I can't read.:cool: I had him on the phone for 30 minutes discussing my family problems and asked him if he would call me once a week because my family doesn't ever call me.:lol: My boys think this is more entertaining then video games.:/
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

haha now that's funny Eric lol,

I am listed on the National No Call list, so I just love it when solicitors call me so I can tell them that they will enjoy the $500.00 fine they will be receiving soon for not doing their job and checking the list before calling LOL :P

I used to think the CoffeeCup family was so sweet! Some of you are really very evil!

But oh so funny!
