o something nice for yourself and
Mother Earth. Streamline bill pay-
ing by receiving your Wheat State bills
electronically and paying them online. It’s
a small change that can yield big benefits.
By switching to electronic bills, the
average household can save 6.6 pounds of
paper every year. If 20 percent of all U.S.
households made the switch, the collective
impact would save more than 1.8 million
trees. Of course, more gets saved besides
trees when you manage bills online. You
also save time by eliminating the clutter
of paper statements and the need to write
and mail checks.
Also, when you subscribe to E-Statement
you’ll receive a coupon valid for FREE
Xcelerator High Speed Internet installa-
tion.
That’s a savings of up to $99.95!

ired of being bombarded with unwant-
ed phone calls and junk mail? Take
action by registering with the sites below.
Do Not Call
The Federal Trade Commission says that
more than 172 million phone numbers
have been placed on the National Do
Not Call Registry since it began in 2003.
If you’re not one of them, or if you’ve
changed or added phone numbers since
you originally registered, you may want
to visit this site. You can enter up to three
phone numbers (landline or wireless) in
the online form.
Do Not Write
If you’d like to receive less advertising
mail at home, you can use DMAchoice™,
an online tool developed by the Direct
Marketing Association. This tool divides
direct mail into four categories: Credit
Offers, Catalogs, Magazine Offers, and
Other Mail Offers. You can request to
start or stop receiving mail from individual
companies within each category—or
from an entire category at once.
Do Not Send Credit Offers
Spending way too much time shredding
credit card offers you get in the mail?
OptOutPrescreen.com is a centralized
service to accept and process requests
from consumers to opt-out of these credit
card offers. The service is a joint venture
among the Consumer Credit Reporting
Companies of Equifax, Experian, Innovis,
and TransUnion. Once you provide your
information, your name will be removed
from inclusion on firm offer lists provided
by all four companies.
