    If a First Class Postage Stamp were sold at the price they did in the 1960's, when I get Junk Mail in my Mailbox sent repeatedly to me as
    bulk Mail at a cost to them much less than I can pay for a Postage
    Stamp (most of them are about things I'm not interest at all in buying) I'd Write back and tell them this:
    *Begin*
    I got an Offer that YOU can't refuse.
    I am not interested in your product and would never consider buying it. If You wanted to save some money, STOP Sending Your Junk Mail To Me.
    You wouldn't have to spend those CENTS for sending it to me in a Bulk
    Mail Package.
    Over a Long Time Your Savings In Mailing Costs would Increase to maybe
    One US DOLLAR by not sending advertisements about Your JUNK!
    P.S. Your cost for a Toll Free Telephone Line might drop also.
    *End*

    And then you should stuff all that they sent you in the postage-paid
    envelope included, plus your letter, and let them pay for that
    postage... ;)

    Somehow, I don't think that they'd even read your letter, though....
