Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
have been doing this for years and it really works.
Pay Backs at their expense
READ ALL OF THESE, YOU WILL BE VERY GLAD YOU DID!!!
1)When you get "ads" enclosed with your phone or utility bill, return
these "ads" with your payment. Let the sending companies throw
their own junk mail away.
When you get those "pre-approved" letters in the mail for everything
from credit cards to 2nd mortgages and similar type junk, do not throw
away the return envelope.
Most of these come with postage-paid return envelopes, right?
It costs them more than the regular 37cents postage "IF" and
when they receive them back.
It costs them nothing if you throw them away! The postage was
around 50 cents before the last increase and it is according to
the weight. In that case, why not get rid of some of your other
junk mail and put it in these cool little, postage-paid return
envelopes. One of Andy Rooney's (60 minutes) ideas.
Send an ad for your local chimney cleaner to American Express.
Send a pizza coupon to Citibank. If you didn't get anything
else that day, then just send them their blank application back!
If you want to remain anonymous, just make sure your name
isn't on anything you send them.
You can even send the envelope back empty if you want to
just to keep them guessing!
Eventually, the banks and credit card companies will begin
getting their own junk back in the mail.
Let's let them know what it's like to get lots of junk mail, and
best of all they're paying for it... Twice!
Let's help keep our postal service busy since they are saying that
e-mail is cutting into their business profits, and that's why they
need to increase postage costs again. You get the idea !
If enough people follow these tips, it will work----
I have been doing this for years, and I get very little
junk mail anymore.
Drop 10 pennies in the envelope and it will raise their postage to $2, you will be surprised how fast you will get removed from their mailing lists ( include your original envelope, the one with your address so they know who returned it. )
(2) Do you ever get those annoying phone calls with no one
on the other end?
This is a telemarketing technique where a machine makes phone calls
and records the time of day when a person answers the phone.
This technique is used to determine the best time of day for
a "real" sales person to call back and get someone at home.
What you can do after answering, if you notice there is no one there,
is to immediately start hitting your # button on the phone, 6 or 7
times, as quickly as possible. This confuses the machine that dialed the
call and it kicks your number out of their system.
Since doing this, my phone calls have decreased dramatically.
Three Little Words That Work !!
3) Another Good Idea: The three little words are: "Hold On, Please... "
Saying this, while putting down your phone and walking off
(instead of hanging-up immediately) would make each
telemarketing call so much more time-consuming that boiler room
sales would grind to a halt.
Then when you eventually hear the phone company's "beep-beep-beep"
tone, you know it's time to go back and hang up your handset, which has
efficiently completed its task.
These three little words will help eliminate telephone soliciting.

I just put it back down and went to bed for the night.
