Every week I get a huge pile of junk flyers and coupons jammed into my mail box from businesses I don’t use and won’t use because of their junk mail. Every week as I pull this crap out of my mail box and drag it upstairs to my condo and throw it in the recycle bin, I get angry. The paper they use is slick and the whole pile mixes with my regular mail so I have to sort through it to make sure I don’t throw out a bill or some other piece of mail I actually want. Finally I took a minute after cursing the sender out, to see where this junk was coming from. Redplum is the offender. But to be fair, they do offer an opt-out feature that I could have used years ago and saved myself the frustration of dealing with this weekly mess. I’m embarrassed I was too stupid to figure this out long ago but I am very relieved to have found a solution.
So if you are tired of getting their crap, here’s the link to get removed from their mailing list:
