We have been in our new house for about two weeks now and there is not a mail day (6 times weekly) go by that we do not receive a HUGE STACK of catalogs addressed to the previous owner. I have actually weighed and measured the stack because I couldn't believe some one would subscribe to this many catalogs. Two weeks stack of catalogs measures 34" high and weighs 41 lbs. I have been so pleased in the past to be almost totally PAPERLESS with any bills, banking, junk mail etc. and now this. The only mail that I want to receive are checks made out to me that I don't know are coming, otherwise it's all on line with email, direct deposits etc.
ARE YOU A CATALOG JUNKIE?

I'm with you Lon I do everything online nothing comes in my mail unless I request it or like you, a unaccepted check comes. I hate junk mail and catalogs when you can shop online and see the same catalog, why receive it in the mail. I don't even go to the bank I can deposit check with my IPHONE love it. 

ALOHA!!

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"

Catalog Dilemma
I can't remember the last time I bought anything out of a catalog.
I expressly forbid the use of any of my posts anywhere outside of FG (with the exception of the incredibly witty 'get a room already' )posted recently.
