Pluggers by Rick McKee for January 21, 2021

as they seem to say, “good things come in threes”

I’ve WON!

Dear Voter: Please vote for me, and donate money to help fight cancer. Also, you owe me rent money.

Heck…my email’s no different !

OOORRR…….an entry to the ‘Publishers Clearing House’ Sweepstakes ! ! ! ! !

Me is confused. Is that dog person or bear person?

Throw in catalogs, coupons and more coupons, news letter, Community magazines, Value pack……..

Let’s not forget the Medicare plans solicitations. Even the telephones are in on it.

And either “I want to buy your house” or “You need to buy a cemetery plot”.

….besides ‘all of the above’, every week it’s “hearing aid” ads all dressed up looking like mail from a distant friend.

you forgot one…..credit card apps…

This is what makes Christmas Cards nice ! The cards just say “Hello” and thinking of you ;-)

I got rid of some junk mail (especially the kind that send “No postage required” envelopes) by sending their junk back to them saying NO!!! Took a couple of times, but it seems to be working.

Don’t forget the “Free financial planning seminar in your city” or the “Value Shopper” flyer…

Or Serenity Dollar Dump where you can spend your kids’ inheritance on a box no one will ever see again and hole in the ground to put it in.

Don’t forget the proverbial “You May Be A Winner!” mailings as well as the “Sale of the Century” ads.

Ad for a free hearing test

Too true. Pluggers have been around long enough to remember getting “real” mail and “real” phone calls. [sigh]

Just imagine, if you can, how idyllic life would be without the constant stream of assaults on your wallet from spam snail mail, spam email, junk phone calls, Internet scammers and hackers and just plain thieves.

Also hearing aids, Insurance and satellite TV.

You forgot Vehicle Warranty Expiration Notices! An every one says it’s the last one they’re going to send!

Or flyers for the local grocery stores.

Definition of a complete & total jerk – they keep signing up for things that generate a ton of junk mail and use your address so even (especially) that it has their name on it, it comes to you. Now you know why there’s a bumpersticker that says, “I still miss my ex. I need to go to the range more often.”

… Or a credit card offer again and again and again…

…or doctor bill…

So basically, she got a flyer from Rudi G.

And WHY is it that these Many, Many so called charities and disabled veteran’s causes ALWAYS expect donations from the very disabled vets they supposedly are helping?? And WHERE were they back in the Vietnam days?? :>)
