Here's what I do....

I carefully open everything, especially credit-card offers.

Anything containing a prepaid return envelope is gold. I take
some of the contents (absent identifying info), sealf it into
the prepaid envelope, and mail it back. The addressee has
to pay something like First-Class plus $0.23. I figure they're
paying for my time

Junk without a reply envelope just gets recycled.


Good idea!
