Phone Book Spam Reclamation Service

awedjob — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 16:20:44 +0000

This just from a walk around my block, picking up unwanted phone books.

If you live in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area and you’ve recently received one or four new phone books you don’t want and will never use, give them to me. I’m running a collection of sorts.

On a walk around my block, I picked up all of the unwanted phone book spam. This is what I got. I figured the phone book spammers will not act responsibly regarding their dumping of unwanted, wasteful phone books until they are shamed into realizing just how much of a burden they are puting on the rest of us. And why are they doing this? To game the system and inflate their circulation numbers so they can charge small businesses more money for the ads in the books. That’s not fair to all of us paying for disposal or recycling of these unwanted phone books and it’s not fair to the small businesses who pay for the inflated ads.

If you want me to pick up your unwanted phone book spam, just give me a call at 651 356-8652. If you want to find out about more WUPASS events and frivolity, join our group on face book: http://tinyurl.com/wupass-fb

Monkey Phone Book Chuckin’

I am a big fan of Fillup Munkee. You can imagine my excitement when I received his entry for the Chuck-It Challenge. Since he is a small puppet without fingers and phone books are rather large and heavy I think he did a remarkable job chuckin them to the curb.
