If you’re concerned about your anonymity, keep in mind that companies frequently put ID numbers on their return envelopes to help match the returned mail piece with your record in their database. Sometimes the number is invisible (UV ink) so it doesn’t look “mass produced” to the recipient.

Friendly reminder.
Make sure that you use a box with no identifying information. Scribbling out the barcodes isnt enough.
Mailing restrictions still apply. Mailing them back rotting fish or potentially hazardous materials is a federal offence.
Mailing any kind of threat is also against the law.

This wouldn’t work, anyway. They only prepay envelope postage, not a box.

You can fit a lot of glitter in a envelope.

Wasting their time is wasting their money.
Plus it helps the post office!

A lot of reply paid stuff for large corporations is calculated on weight not on item count, depending on the sorting system used by the country/region in question so this might work sometimes but it depends on a lot of variables.

Is there a legal limit on the amount of farts I can put into an envelope?

Doesn’t help when you use a return postage slip. They have unique codes. Being “just annoying” is probably the safest bet.
