thats crazy! so rude they should ask if you want one.. and people who are told to post it through doors even if theres a note saying otherwise, you could be polite and say sorry im told to put them through anyways but i will stop now....AND DONT BE A HYPOCRITE

everyone is getting confused here.
junk mail is addressed or non addressed mail that comes through the royal mail, and has to be delivered-its law. if you dont want this mail, go online or into a post office and request it is stopped.
if its just some sweaty kebab shop owner and his 14 sons delivering them, save them all, and then post them some menus for ANOTHER curry/kebab house.

Bit of variety in your takeaway is no bad thing.

I get the feeling royal mail get paid to send such rubbish through our doors.....probably their way of helping their finances.
I doubt they would do it for free.
The letter titled ''To the Occupier'' are just obviously for every house, damn annoying. Getting loads at my new house already.

Of course they get paid for it, every bit of mail we deliver has to of had postage paid on it.
I hate delivering all that crap, but unfortunately it keeps me in a job. The only mail i have to deliver that's not properly addressed are door 2 doors, usually 3 items, one inside the other once a week, this week was Farmfoods, some insurance crap, and dominos i think. We get an extra £25 a week for delivering these things.
Like i say, i don't like delivering it, i'd rather go to the couple of houses who have stuff they want sent to them, but it's been paid for by someone, so i've got to post it. Sorry
Other stuff, menus etc... I get at least one a day from some take-away or cleaning thing, they piss me off

1. What if your windows get smashed.
2. What if you/your wife spill wine or anything that stains the carpet.
3. If your driveway starts to deteriate(sp?)
4. If you are caught short and no time for shopping or you fancy a fridy night treat.
5.Treat the lady in your life for once 
6.Want to Move house/not got time to go to Estate Agents
7.Want some funky little gadgets like a singing tin opener
1. Then I will get the yellow pages out.
2. Stain resistant, and I have tiled floors mainly where drinking takes place.
3. Under warranty.
4. I don't eat shitty take aways ever TBH, some of people cooking them make me ill.
5. She gets treated plenty, better than a £40 manicure
6. I wouldn't use a normal estate agent for the type of house I'm going for next, and I'd sell mine via the local one in the village.
7. I have plenty of gadgets and I wouldn't buy any shit from a catalogue.
Next

Nik, what you should do, is save 3 or 4 different takeaways, and then ring them all and order a decent order from them, but have the delivery address as a different takeaway

I understand your pain Nik!!
So much for saving trees, recycling n all that crap when I get half of fucking the amazon through my door every day.
And those pikey window/doors people.
"YEs sir, I see you need new facsias"
"Yes"
"would you like a free no obligation quote, we can arrange for our team to come over on ?? and blah blah"
"no thanks"
"but its free, it cost you nothing"
"I don't have the money to ahve it done, so whats the point in a quote"
"but its free"
"so are the fascias free??"
"no you would need to pay for that"
"ok, so what did i just say about money"
In the end, the door gets shut. The fcukers won't leave you alone, then they give YOU the sh1tty stare at the end.
Yeah fcukofff, im not the c*nt harrassing people at their front doors. Go get a proper job fuckwit and stop badgering people as they've just got in from work
