Attention Austinites

By Karl-Thomas Musselman

Especially students... are you tired of those "every address" bulk junk mail pieces that you get? There are apparently ways to get off the lists. If interested, take a gander at this post by Kaan.

Found a URL for ADVO removal too--it's http://www.advo.com/consumersupport.html and has a form where you can indicate if you want to be added (yikes!) or removed from their list.

Great post.

I used to work for a West Campus realty company that bought the lists in bulk for next to nothing straight from the Office of the Registrar. At least back then you had to remove yourself from the student directory service to avoid the spam.

Check out my Austin Apartment newsblog if you need a new place.
