    Presumably with the reply paid envelopes?

    Stick something heavy in them and send them back, they soon take you off their lists.

    I have had stairlift ads and I live in a flat, tenna pads and heavens knows what else. time these companies realised there is a vast difference between 50 and 90!

    So far this week I have had:
    - Phone call offering me reasonably priced hearing aids
    - 1 Letter advertising a great deal on a mobility scooter
    - A free sample pack of 3 "varying in absorbency" tenna lady
    - A lovely letter (plus form and reply paid envelope!) for a funeral plan - this came with a free parker pen so was quite excited about that!!!!

    Only problem - I'm 32! :confused:

    Last time I checked I could hear clearly, am quite mobile, not yet suffering from bladder weakness or meet the criteria of being over 50 for the funeral plan, but hey, makes me feel popular! :rotfl:

    P.S I kept the pen!

    So you also have a friend playing about giving your contact details to suppliers of such products????

    I think so - although the things mentioned above are the nicer things I get....
