Credit Card Junk Mail Sucks
Once upon a time I was a missionary in Tacoma Washington. At that time, in an effort to try and "focus on the mission" missionaries were asked/challenged to go without phone calls or emails from home. That meant that good old fashioned snail mail became your best friend, particularly if that little metal box held a letter from your girlfriend back home. I can remember going to the mail box day after day and coming up dry.
Fast forward a few years to now and I would LOVE to see an empty mail box. Today, I am welcomed with dozens of warm greetings from grocery stores, satellite television companies, and worse of all credit card offers . Ok, not worse of all, nothing can dethrone a bill from that lofty status. But at least I asked for the bill. The thing I hate about credit card offers is how sneaky they are. Some of the envelopes make you think you won the lottery - only to find out you were "chosen" to receive another opportunity to acquire some future debt.
Even if they trick you into opening the envelope, you then are exected to wade through pages of text to really understand the offer. No thank you, if I am going to shop for a new credit card I much prefer to use a credit card comparison site. I believe they greatly save time, frustration, and in the end money.
Anyway, I hate junk mail...
