20 Minutes, Almost 20 Catalogs Declined

January 30, 2008

I just wanted to report back on my task of declining catalogs via Catalog Choice, as I wrote about yesterday.

I just spent 20 minutes on the site and opted out of nearly 20 catalogs.

This was so easy and something I can easily see myself doing on a regular basis if additional catalogs show up in my mailbox.

Like I said earlier I have no intention of curtailing my direct mail shopping and don’t want catalog companies coming down on me for suggesting that I’m contributing to the decline of our economy. I love to shop with companies like L.L. Bean and Pottery Barn. I just would like to do it via the Internet and save paper by not getting their catalogs.

Let me know if you’ve had a similarly easy time on Catalog Choice–or if you’ve uncovered another easy way to cut down on the number of catalogs coming into your mailbox.
