I was pretty annoyed with it for quite a while. That is, until I made a game of it: I'd collect the offers and, when I was bored, open up a few, remove any personally identifiable information, stuff their competition's marketing material into any prepaid postage envelopes they sent along (and there always is a prepaid envelope), and drop it in the mail the next morning... :) I can't say whether this game had anything to do with it, but I get very little refinancing / homeowner insurance / etc. junk mail anymore.

I get a lot of offers as a homeowner for refinancing and things. I just bought the place and already there are refinancing offers! Unbelievable.
