RAF Raffle tickets in BMFA news   
Cheeky buggers.

"All unsold tickets to be returned".  I know they supplied a pre-paid 
envelope, but it makes me feel like a criminal already.

Really?  Was that the red envelope insertion? I threw mine out unopened 
and unnoticed, like I do for all insertions in mags.  I assumed it was
some advertising or whatever.

Oops.  Ah well, maybe they'll think a bit more about it before they 
do it again.

I got a good mind to send the unsold stubs in and refuse to give them any 
money.
See what they can prove & do.

Oops, opened bag, took out magazine and threw the rest in the bin - the 
magazine usually follows a few days later!

I'm so used to them and others included a heap of unrelated junk mail that I 
don't even take the time to look at it anymore.

I don't like the idea of unsolicited raffle tickets at all. I don't want
them and yet you somehow feel a bit of a heel for throwing them away.

That's when you know they are there in the first place !

I don't like the idea of unsolicited raffle tickets at all. I don't want
them and yet you somehow feel a bit of a heel for throwing them away.

That's when you know they are there in the first place !

Really?  Was that the red envelope insertion? I threw mine out unopened 
and unnoticed, like I do for all insertions in mags.  I assumed it was
some advertising or whatever.

Oops.  Ah well, maybe they'll think a bit more about it before they 
do it again.

I got a good mind to send the unsold stubs in and refuse to give them any 
money.
See what they can prove & do.

Oops, opened bag, took out magazine and threw the rest in the bin - the 
magazine usually follows a few days later!

I'm so used to them and others included a heap of unrelated junk mail that I 
don't even take the time to look at it anymore.
