Catalog Choice: Reduce Your Mailbox Clutter

If you’re like me, you get tons of catalogs in the mail that you never requested, and some are interesting, but most go into the recycle bin. I recycle at least two catalogs a day. But my friend sent me a link to this new free service, Catalog Choice, where you just check off which catalogs you don’t want to continue receiving, and they notify the company. With an eye toward preserving our natural resources, it’s a great service. It’s still in beta, so I hope it’s successful.

This really has made a giant difference in the number of catalogs I receive. Great news in this age of cutting back and going green! Thanks so much for the tip!

I saw this on Today this morning and it looks like a great idea. They said that 19 billion catalogs are distributed each year!

Thanks! I have been contacting each catalog company directly. This will save me much time. Great tip.
