Received a mailer today offering a Walmart Gift card if I would respond for info about up to $35K FE.. Of course it was a blind mailer so you cna't tell what company or agency was involved. Has anyone had experience with these leads? How much is the gift card for? Would think you get a lot of responders only interested in getting something for free and no insurance info..

I got one too - about a month or so ago. Was the return address in Columbus OH?

Is that legal? Doesn't that constitute an offer or enticement of some kind?

Not as long as they are not contingent upon buying insurance.

I know a guy in Ohio that sends those out. It's a $5 Walmart card that he uses. Says he has no more success with those than any other mailers.
Most people won't go for a cheap gift unless they have a real interest.

Reminds me of the story of a lady agent I worked with at Pru many moons and suns ago...
Shirley decided to have a booth at some kind of summertime street fair. The hook was a bicycle you could enter a raffle for. She picks a winner, calls 'em up and makes arrangements to visit and deliver the bike.
She schleps the bike over to their house. They took the bike, but wouldn't even let her in...

I though I had saved it but can't find it. I think that was where the reply card went to.. It was one of those Yankee towns..
