Hey- I just wanted to let you know that it is a federal offense to put things on/in mailboxes. You are better off putting them on doorknobs or paper boxes. Good luck- I just don't want you getting in trouble!!

Just an FYI I got a very nasty message on my home machine last week because apparently my fliers flew into his yard because it was windy outsied. So I spent the money to print them, time to put them in mailboxes (newspaper slot) all the time to pass them out andd then got a nasty message.

Just an FYI- this is against USPS regulations. You can be fined (or worse) for putting anything that is not postage-bearing mail in or on any part of a mailbox.
