Postal mail

[melodylogan45]

Someone once told me, once we hit 50 years old, our postal mail will change.

So far I signed up for AARP and  tonight we are attending a retirement dinner
Seminar.

Have your mail changed yet?

How is it supposed to change?  (I am not 50 yet, but my wife will be next year and I will hopefully get there a few years later).  Do you mean that junk mail solicitations targeting an older demographic will increase once you hit that magic number?  I'm not sure that I follow the question.

I'm 77 and it hasn't changed yet. What should I be looking for?

[Nancy5]

I'm over 50 and it hasn't changed for me.  Who told you that?

Your "postal mail" ??  Why would anything change in your mail after you turn 50?  Unless it's junk mail targeting people over 50.

[ghunter]

I never heard of such a thing, I am 61 and nothing have change.  Are you suppose to call or tell the postal people you are over 50 years old?

[aflyingmonkey]

That's true
You'll be targeted by a different demographic of junk mail.  AARP, life insurance, burial, etc...    All of a sudden you'll be classified as old and close to death... at 50.   So dumb, but true.

Even the ideal target audience of television watchers is 18-49 demographic, after that you don't count, because apparently you no longer shop or are a consumer... 

[sdenimandlace1]

Has not changed for me either.

[vickysue]

Has not changed for me, but of course when I moved it took a while for unsolicited crap to catch up woth me. Most of it goes into file 13. It seems to me if a person is not ordering anything from them and has not in years they would quit sending it. Nope just cut another tree and send more junk mail.

The only change is the price of stamps going up and they deliver packages on Sundays.

[Sendmicheck]

This is the first time hearing about postal changes other than stamps.

[CharmedPhoenix]

I"ve gotten mail from AARP for years, even before I turned 50.  They buy their mailing list from a couple places I get e-mail from.  I can tell because I used my nickname on those sites and that's how they address the mail.   

[pressman]

I am 72 mail has not changed what do you mean

[sherryinutah]

I'm over 50 and I've been getting junk mail where I can sign up for life insurance and burial plans.  Could that be the change I should be looking for?

 

[bowrunner]

I do get occasional mail that is targeted to older people, such as burial insurance, medical tests etc.  I no longer get anything from AARP because I kept mailing their mail back to them and finally got my name off their mailing lists.
