I recently received what seemed like the billionth email from Pottery Barn. While I love their stuff, I am kinda on a budget and I don't need to be reminded how each of my sparsely furnished rooms are kinda pathetic. Here's their refreshing take on unsubscribing.
Dear Pottery Barn Subscriber,

We understand how daunting a full inbox can be. If you would like to receive fewer emails from us, simply select from the options below. To completely remove your email address from our list, please select the unsubscribe option.

Sincerely,

Pottery Barn

My Email Address: [hidden]

I would like to:

• Receive up to 1 email per week
• Receive up to 2 emails per month
• Receive up to 1 email per month
• Unsubscribe from your email list

You will still receive email notifications regarding the status
of your order when you provide your email address with each order.

Guess what? I didn't unsubscribe completely and went with the one per month option.

Thanks, Pottery Barn, for showing an empathetic side!
