In these more challenging economic times, many people are trying to lower their debt load.
While it takes definite self-control, planning, and intentionality to get rid of already existing debt (check out www.daveramsey.com), there is a simple way to help yourself not get into further debt. You can call 888-567-8688 to opt out of receiving pre-approved credit card applications in the mail. While it probably won't stop all offers from coming to your mailbox, it should significantly lessen them.
If you do happen to still receive some, toss them. And for added safety, shred them. That will not only protect you from more debt, but also from anyone finding the discarded application and stealing your identity on a new card.
