I keep getting them from Michael's. A coupon for $5. I unsubscribed already! Still coming...arghh..
The only option I have is 'hide till next update'
It goes away and then reappears again and again and again. Anyone else? How can I get rid of it for good?
I also get them for every delivery notification..

I just got it again...I tried every way. There is no way to delete. It's under 'shopping'
These coupons pop up from stores like targets, Michael's and I don't have an option to delete them. Got 100s already . It makes me plotz

You can try to filter all of these to go to a folder

It's the same effort as hiding it... I just dont want them popping up again, which they do.

I think I got it!!! It is under "Subscriptions". You can block or Uninstall notifications. I took off many.

If they are truly coming from Michaels, there is always a place at the bottom to unsubscribe and a legitimate company will take you off the list.

However the vast majority of these are just SPAM so it does no good and can even be counter-productive because emailing them indicates you have a valid email address.

Most good email now has fairly strong SPAM filters. I have thousands that are automatically sent to my JUNK mail folder - sometimes even real stuff goes there. I still get the occasional SPAM and I just send it to the SPAM filter because theoretically email "learns" and I also have the ability to block contact which I sometimes do but that generally doesn't help because SPAM email comes from a different address each time.

I was just going to say turn off notifications. And when you get a popup asking you if you can be alerted by a site to special deals, etc., make sure to say no.

So annoying I'm getting them again!
It's not an email, so I can't unsubscribe or send to spam. It's a card that pops up at the top of my emails. The only way I can get rid of it s by clicking 'hide the card' but it keeps coming back anyway.

I think when I pass Michael's next time, I will tell walk in and tell them I absolutely must get off their list!

I don't know Yahoo, but sounds like an ad that's Yahoo's fault.

I sick and tired of Yahoo. Is there a way to switch over if most of my accounts are linked to this email?
