I keep getting emails for shops that do not apply to me. ie; Bank shops for $40. Well when I emailed and inquired about it you told me I did not qualify so how bout, scratching me off the list of potential shoppers. I'm just saying.

Really a time waster and so annoying...the emails for out of state shops and airport shops, "Are you traveling"....or areas you won't go to, the list goes on...

Live consciously....

I get 20 emails a month about oil change shops...meanwhile they KNOW I'm ineligible because I just changed the oil on both cars and reported on it, to them! I complained and they said they can't stop the emails, I can either get ALL the emails (for every location in my big state) or no emails at all.

I hate that, too. You could always filter your email by keywords and send them straight to the trash, sight unseen. I do that with a few (pizza comes to mind).

I want the carry out pizza emails but don't need four or five a day for delivery pizza because they won't deliver in my neighborhood. One bothersome one that comes to mind is for expensive sunglasses.

I unsubscribed from the Expensive Sunglasses MSC because of those annoying emails. Not only were there tons but they were all HELP DESPERATE YOU CAN HAVE OUR FIRSTBORN CHILD aka $2 bonus.

The trick is to look at how they're consistently phrased and use filters akin to these:

Body contains
Pizza AND "delivery only"
Delete

Or

Body contains
Pizza but not "carry out"
Delete

I know they're all worded differently and some email services/clients don't have as robust filtering as others.

I keep getting the Auto shop email for every state in the US. I also get emails for cell phone shops not in my area.

I agree. I get all of those email well and they are really annoying. I haven't been able to go through my emails for the last day and a half because I did some last minute shops out in "No mans Land" and now i have about 75 emails. Half of which or crap.
