I suggest that everyone get one of these marketing kits and then place it in a landfill.

The other tactic to eat up the funding of such a group is to take a brick (or a length of 2x4) and wrap it in brown paper, then glue any Business Reply Mail - Postage paid either postcard or envelope for the Kerry campaign or Moveon.org, etc. to the package. Drop in mailbox and try not to laugh too hard when it lands with a thud. By the time it gets to the destination - they'll be billed a lot of money for the postage.

Sorry - Urban Legend


In particular, the Post Office is NOT obligated to deliver "bricks for Jerry" or other large objects unless the business reply form says "Business Reply Label" (note that last word: that's the thing that is checked).
Delivery fails if the intended recipient refuses to pay for the shipment, and he is entitled to refuse without penalty.

It is also possible for the recipient to restrict in advance use of business reply forms by weight: if the item is endorsed for weight up to 'n', the post office doesn't have to even attempt delivery of overweight items.
