The newspaper makes a ton of money off of those inserts and agreements about them happen at the top of the org chart. Nobody you can reach has any power here.

The newspaper makes a ton of money off of those inserts and agreements about them happen at the top of the org chart. Nobody you can reach has any power here. In addition, if their support was young enough they'd have no idea what you're talking about.
"That crazy guy who thinks there's a conspiracy to print off ads and put them in his mailbox called again today!"
- wholinator2 5y agoWell I would imagine any individual old enough to rent and/or shop at bed bath and beyond would be fairly familiar with the concept of receiving print ads in the mail. Those Valpack things are pretty common where I live and they're essentially exactly the same as the newspaper inserts, just like 50 of em in a branded envelope
- hoffspot 5y agoThe Valpack envelops make me so sad. I just take them out of the mailbox and toss them into the recycling bin. Think of all the trees used, energy wasted, and chemicals used in making the ink that are now in the environment for absolutely no reason.
- yojo 5y agoYou can stop that one! https://www.valpak.com/coupons/show/mailinglistsuppression https://www.valpak.com/coupons/show/mailinglistsuppression Unrelated to my original post, but I have been on a quest to purge all the junk from my physical mail. It is a huge PITA, but in almost all cases you can email someone and eventually get them to stop. The other big ones that cut a lot of junk are DMA choice for catalog opt out (https://www.dmachoice.org/register.php https://www.dmachoice.org/register.php) and the pre screened credit card offer opt out (https://www.optoutprescreen.com/ https://www.optoutprescreen.com/).
