I had never heard of "Neighbor to Neighbor" before. While talking to
my aunt on the phone, she discovered that I also got my hair cut at
"Great Clips" She told me that a local flyer she gets in the mail N2N
had a coupon for a discount on haircuts. I found out that there is an
online version of N2N. I went online and printed a coupon and took it
in to "Great Clips" for a haircut. I now get N2N in the mail.

I really get tired of having to move stuff from the mailbox to the
trash can.

I would say the most likely thing that happened was when I used the
coupon, "Great Clips" put me on N2N's mailing list. I had been using
"Great Clips" for at least 3 years. I assume cashing the coupon
somehow enables "Great Clips" to sell/share my info with N2N (and who
knows who else).

The first time I went into the store, they asked for my name and
address "for the computer" and when I go in they ask for my phone
number. I never really objected before but now that I have made the
connection, I may not furnish any more stores with my personal
information. It really isn't personal, is it?

I'm not a psychiatrist, but why would you even consider that not
giving accurate information to a company to be personal? It doesn't
make sense.

If a local store asked for your Zip code - would you give it to them
or would you give a bogus one? Phone number?

You can still by a local product with a bogus Zip code, last I
checked.

YMMV.

I go to Great Clips but have not made that connection with N2N or get
their mailings so I assume you got snagged by on-line N2N rather than
Great Clips.

I like Great Clips checking you in immediately by phone number rather
than sitting with a group of guys in the barber shop wondering who's
next. For us seniors, it's only $11 vs $15 for senior day at the barber
shop. I leave a better tip and have never had a bad hair cut there.

Yes, sounds like that's one way to get on a mailing list.
I see a trend in the US and probably rest of the world.
Everyone just ass/u/mes that you want their advertising,
and everyone else's. And, so, the information goes wild,
and the spam keeps pouring in.

Just saying, it did not happen to me and I never made an N2N connection.
I hate junk mail too but this would probably be insignificant to all the
loose flyers we already get in the mail.

I hear that. When my hair is cut - outside, I advise her to leave it
for the birds, so they can use it in a nest for warmth.

....a little help for the birds

I have not paid for a hair cut for over a decade.

Eleven years since I polished shoes....

Yeah.

I recall that when I had a lot of hair...a regular barber was not good
enough for me so would go to a hair stylist.

Eventually I ended up going to one of those "retired men's haircuts
$1.75 " places and read the 30 year old sports magazines while I waited.


When I met my (now) wife she took on that responsibility.



As to shoes, I still put on polish but I don't bother to shine them.

Many years ago, when they were hiring a stable boy. In the interview, he

They said, "You're hired!"

Oh, good grief. It has nothing to do with me being paranoid. I just;

Aside, the government knows plenty about me already. Having went
