I agree, why is it so hard to hang up? Are we afraid they will think we are rude? HEY - they are the ones who called us to ask for money, to me that is rude.

And don't forget, the mailing labels are great for giving your name and address, like when you are filling in a form for a door prize. Keep some in your purse.
