How do I unsubscribe from coupon mailing lists?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

If you are receiving paper junk mail, that is a bit harder to eliminate. You can opt out of the credit card offers by adding an initial fraud alert to your credit account via Experian, Equifax, or Trans Union. They add your name as a courtesy to a list that opts you out of receiving offers for 3-5 years. For weekly advertisments from grocery stores, if they are delivered via a weekly supplemental ad like a Wednesday food source, those are delivered by the company that puts them out for free. You will need to look at the newspaper section of the circular and see if there is a contact address. Beyond that, more businesses are doing cold contacting via mail about coupons during the recession. Our junk mail load has increased tremendously since last summer and there isn't a good way to stop it. The post office will still deliver it here despite putting a no junk mail sign in your mail box. I just ignore them or throw the junk mail away as I walk into the house. That way the clutter isn't inside and no worry about it.

I used to get a portion of a small forest delivered weekly when I lived in England until I joined an opt out registry. This stopped most of it.
I've had a look on the internet and found a few sites that you can register with in the U.S that offer a similar service and may be worth a try.
This seems to be the main one;
Direct Marketing Association
Mail Preference Service
P.O. Box 282
Carmel, NY 10512
www.dmachoice.org
To register online, it is www.dmachoice.org/dma/member/regist.action
Another site, ecofuture.org sounds worth a try they advise this:
"Contact Private Citizen at 800-CUT-JUNK. They have a very successful strategy for getting off junk mailing lists, using Form 1500. If you run into resistance from a postmaster when submitting Form 1500, Private Citizen can do a little arm-twisting, representing you as your attorney."
It sounds a bit heavy, but if you are getting loads, it might be an idea.
It seem unlikely that you will get any help from the Post Office, it seems they tell you to contact each company individually, which could take weeks out of your life!
If all else fails, you could try putting a sign like this on your door!

Most of these coupon sites have an ‘’unsubscribe’’ sign below every single email they send to you . Some might even include an email address and/or a postal address.
To unsubscribe from these coupon mailing lists you can either click on the ‘’unsubscribe’’ sign at the bottom of the emails that you get from them, or send an ‘’unsubscribe me’’ email to them. The email does not have to be lengthy, a simple ‘’ Please unsubscribe me from your mailing list ’’ would do.
Be aware that it might take 24 hours or some days before they remove your email address from their lists. But if you continue to receive the mails after a week, you’ll have to visit their website and make a report or send a postal mail.
