Default Help: Canceling flyers

Hi CP, I need some help. The guy/gal that delivers flyers to my house just throws them towards my pathway (between the sidewalk and my front door) and it ends up everywhere. How do I go about canceling the delivery of these flyers? I would put a "no more flyers" sticker on my mailbox, but the guy/gal never makes it anywhere near the mailbox.

Thanks.

You have to call The Flyer Force in order to officially cancel the flyers

Maybe put a "no flyers" sign on your front door. We did and we don't get anything anymore. Or catch him doing it and tell him to eff off.

EDIT: someone beat me to it with a real solution.

Haha, i was tempted to do your second suggestion, but I don't know approximately what time they come by in the morning. The no flyers on the door wouldn't help much either.

I was going to try to get the flyer delivery cancelled but the woman who delivers them has huge knockers and never wears a bra. Sooooo I didn't cancel the delivery.

I talked to my flyer dude and told him I appreciate his hardwork but don't need the flyers anymore in a friendly tone. He understood and I haven't had flyers in months.

For my mailbox, I put a sticky of "no junk mail" and Canada Post no longer gives me unaddressed mail and/or flyers.

Are you the bra-less woman with the huge knockers?

How much do you get paid for the deliveries?

If you have a "no flyer" sign on your malibox/door and still somebody stuffs it up with unsolicited mail, can you do something legally about it? Does Calgary have a bylaw regarding flyers?

Sniper rifle and an iron clad alibi.

We were watching Criminal Order: CSI, right? The show with Ted Danson and Ice Cube?

If I kick in an extra $50, can I pick what I was watching?
