This is today's #political #mailers... Little do these campaigns know I already voted. Anyone know how I can save the #Harris campaign some money? I'm happy to let MAGA bleed itself out.

#Amazon is set to phase out the use of #plastic #mailers. Unfortunately, Amazon didn't set out a timeline for this transition to occur.

Always thought the plastic mailers were horrible, wished they brought back using small #boxes or increase the use of their #paper mailers for really small items. These were easily recyclable, the plastic mailers aren't, not everyone is willing to drive to a dropoff to #recycle them.
