First of all, how cute is this pink mailbox?!
Is your mailbox getting full of spam as a result of signing up for coupon offers? If so, do what I did, and create a new one!
I have an email address just for "signup to print coupons here" type of offers. This way I'm not weeding through junk email to find a personal email, and if I do need to search for a "coupon" type email, I know just where to go.

i do the same and I love your pink mailbox too! =)
That's a great idea. I do the same thing.
An important thing to remember, though, is to make your email address really unusual. I set up an email account and have NEVER given the address to anybody (the address is simple, like name@bellsouth.net) and it gets about 25 spammy emails a day. Apparently some spammers make up lists of addresses that sound common, hoping that they happen to be real addresses.
We also have a junkmail email address that we use whenever we have to register with a website... I'm good at using it myself, but haven't taught my kids yet- thanks for the reminder!
yes, it is a gorgeous pink mailbox :)
I just launched a conquer your email MP3 and handbook last week because this is such a BIG problem out there!
Well done for finding a solution :)
