Today, I was really frustrated because my mail box was full of bunch of crap (i.e. catalogs, credit card offers, etc). My box was so full that some of the more important mail, small items for my car :rofl:, were left in front of my door. My house has an open garage and anyone could of taken it. I was watching the news today and fair enough, they had a piece about limiting junk mail. So I thought I'd share the info to you guys. These info are not new, so someone of you might already know or doing it.

The registry is nationwide in scope, applies to all telemarketers (with the exception of certain non-profit organizations), and covers both interstate and intrastate telemarketing calls. Commercial telemarketers are not allowed to call you if your number is on the registry, subject to certain exceptions. As a result, consumers can, if they choose, reduce the number of unwanted phone calls to their homes.To stop receiving credit card offers in the mail: call 1-888-5OPT-OUT
info: Credit reporting agencies allow businesses to prescreen your credit report to determine if they want to send you a credit card offer. You have the right to not have your credit report prescreened by other companies.
