I have a whole box full from various charities that I have donated to in the past. I have written to them telling to not send anymore, but that doesn't do any good.

How does one dispose of them? Just toss them in the trash or shred them.

Most of them I shred.

Me, too! It drives me nuts, I don't throw them away because there are people who go though recyclables. I hesitate to shred them because they have sticky on them.

use them in other ways if you want......i use mine in some books, dvds, cds, or anything else that may need a label on the inside so that you know it is yours. i recently saw my mom use some inside of her suitcases, attached to index cards.

It would take 3 lifetimes to use all the labels we have. I keep some and toss the others.

send the main label back with

PLEASE REMOVE FROM LIST written on it, they will eventually stop sending them, or look them up on the web and call them. I did this and it does work you have to keep at it.

I contribute to some vets organizations that send them - I use them, I'm glad to show off my patriotism.
