Land’s End Warning: Order School Uniforms, Get Porn

Upon getting our mail on Saturday we found a pornographic magazine addressed to my name, followed by “A Land’s End Bonus”. Thanks be to God that our boys had not gotten the mail that day, as they usually do to help their pregnant mama. We were horrified that this could end up in our mailbox via ordering school uniforms from our sweet part time Christian school.

A call to Land’s End Customer service revealed that any customer placing an on line order of over $100 could be sent this as a “free bonus”. Land’s End was not overly apologetic and claimed that it wasn’t their fault, but said that they could unsubscribe us from this “free bonus”. When I asked about other families, I was told by Land’s End customer service that they would each have to call to be removed from the list (the phone number is: 800.963.4816).

I immediately emailed all of our class lists and notified all moms not to let their kids get the mail since most moms would have had to place an order of $100 from Land’s End for the school year. Several had already received the magazine.

I also notified the administration and board of the school, prompting a 3-campus wide email from the headmaster on a Sunday night warning all parents, PreK-12. Our school will also be considering switching uniform vendors.

Please pass this on to any families you know that may have ordered anything from Land’s End. We have also ordered our homeschool uniform shirts from Land’s End and know many homeschool families that turn to them for more modest swim apparel and longer skirts. However, the distribution of soft core porn to families that order through Land’s End is deplorable and unacceptable.

Pornography is an insidious evil in our culture and we need to protect the hearts, minds and eyes of our children. Please share!!!!!!

** Edited to add that I did NOT select to receive “Free Bonus Mag” on checkout and neither did several other moms who received mag. It was sent automatically and without consent. My first goal in publicizing this is to make sure these images stay out of the hands and minds of our children! **
