There are several things to avoid to keep off the telemarketers lists. Those 
contests at the malls to enter for a free vacation, car, etc. Just fill out 
this card with your address, telephone number, etc....don't do it. Magazine 
subscriptions, places like Radio Shack that ask you for all kinds of personal 
details just to buy a pack of batteries that you're paying cash for....all of 
this generates junk mail and junk phone calls. Also those surveys that ask you 
how much your average household income is....none of their business but 
people tell them anyway...guess why they want to know? Avoid all of these 
things and you give the junk mailers and telemarketers less reason to bother 
you.
