Junk Mail

I am sick and tired of getting all of this junk mail.  Every day I get piles of useless requests to buy products or sign up for some services or another.  From my understanding, you can go the Post Office and request that you do not receive junk mail (or any third class mail).  However, once you do that you are cut of from receiving any of this mail at all — grocery fliers, community news, et al.
