While he was sorting mail and I was complaiing about junk mail, I recall my mail carrier said that all the $$$ that junk mail companies pay for deliveries keeps our postage costs down.   

I seem to be getting less, and stamps have gone up.

I get mostly ads from Spectrum and the Neptune Society.  

I'd prefer grocery flyers.

I almost forgot....hearing aid ads, contribution come on's, but not a whole lot.

• I belong to several organizations and get quite a bit of mail from them and related groups.  And, solicitations from just about every charitable group you ever heard of.

• Catalogs from all the places I regularly shop. Love looking through catalogs.  I almost always come across something in them that inspires one of my next knitted or crocheted piece.

• Mailings from organizations I contribute to.  

• Literature from schools I attended to or donated to.  I do like to receive these.

Information from the government, political flyers, junk mail, packages.  Lots of packages!  We have a very big mailbox and it's the mail carrier's fun puzzle many days to fit them in!

Couldn't believe what was in my mailbox today!

A MONTGOMERY WARD catalog.

It felt like 1974 .......

Seriously, are they still in business??

Talk about a name from the past.

Everything old new again???

Im over 70 so my mail consists of free hearing tests, the joys of cremation, estate planning, medicare plans, and coupons towards an oil change for a car I no longer have.  And sometimes junk mail.

Medicare ads..walk in tub ads....catalogs..a few cards and bills..I have informed delivery from the Post Office..so I can see online what should be in my mailbox..IF the mailperson shows up..If it's junk..sometimes We don't go down to the box for days..especially in winter.

Mainly junk mail here. I bring it inside and right to the shredder. I've heard that junk mail is what's keeping the USPS going nowadays so, while I really dislike the fact that so much paper is going to the trash, guess if it keeps them going, I'll live with it. I do get a few magazines: Garden & Gun and Guideposts publications. Many online companies I frequent use the USPS now, even Amazon!
