from a rather nervous sounding woman from what I think was a Windows & Blinds company saying that I am the "runner-up" of a prize (of which the main prize was tickets to the Hampton Court Flower Show) and my prize is...
... a set of their brochures.
I am not kidding.
Would I like to call them back? Would I HELL!!!

If they send you them in the post you could do what I do and put a big cross through your name and address, circle the return address/sender address and write in huge letters - RETURN TO SENDER - DON'T SEND ANY MORE THANKS AS NOT INTERESTED! Then pop them back into the postbox!
I do that with most of the unwanted brochures I get! Saves filling my recycling bin!:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0 -
or if they are on soft flushable paper you could be really MSE and reuse them...Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.
Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.
