Hahaha what an awesome idea.

Kind of similar to a friend of mine who responded to a junk mailer by filling envelopes with white powder and other random stuff. The brick idea is just hilarious esp when they get the bill.

this has been around for ages…

the best thing to send is used car tires and dead batteries because they have to spend time and money on recycling them.

white powder is a stupid thing to do… that could get you arrested.

thats what i was wondering too. I guess it would be hard to know since the billing info is related to the address and when the person picks it up, the info is there so they just enter it as 2 lbs instead of 2oz. lol

just remember… send things that can’t be thrown away in the trash. If they have to pay to recycle then that’s best because it costs them both time and effort.
