I'll try it and let you know (none / 0) (#1)

Though you might not want to wait two months for the answer.

Here's what all Gripelog readers should do, though: every credit card offer includes a self-addressed, postage guaranteed envelope that they hope you'll send your application in. Fill it with all the junk you can find, get it up to at least 2 or 3 oz., and drop it in the mailbox.

Make sure you leave out anything that could be construed as your having agreed to or applied for anything. I do it all the time, knowing that one person doing it won't make much of a difference, but I urge others to do it as much as possible.
