I sent an email to Burpee ~

I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but whenever I ordered from Burpee, I ended up with excess spam in my email for about 6 months. I've seen the same with Gurneys. IMO- they sell email addresses on the side.

Growing things is one thing, but "Viagra from Canada" ads can get annoying after awhile............

That hasn't happened to me from Burpee..unless my spam blocker just gets rid of it before it hits my inbox...

I did get one of those "Dear Friend" letters from a high ranking foreign minister's widow the other day wanting me to help her move his assets.

Unless you are a guy who needs it. :o)

If you get emails from companies you don’t want, do a right click on it and see if you can label it as always junk mail and it will go in your mail delete folder from then on instead of your in box.

You mentioned Burpee earlier..did anyone see the "Super Sauce" tomato on the cover of one of this year's Burpee catalogues? It was huge, and it said, "actual size" - one tomato fills a jar. A Roma that weighs 2.5 lbs.

I'm not sure how I resisted ordering it.
