Do you get a bunch of mailers from ONE company?

A little over a year ago I had no CC's and a whole bunch of derogs on my CR's.  With plenty of hard work, patience and $$$, I was able to get everything cleaned up and am now sitting at 720+ FICO's and plenty of prime cards.  What I'm still getting used to is the concept of receiving/shredding mailers.  More than anything, I'm constantly getting mailers from Citi!  ThankYou Preferred, Simplicity, Diamond Preferred, etc.  It seems I get one or two of these a week!  While I get mailers from BOA, Discover, CreditOne (it never ends), nobody comes quite close to the volume of paper Citi drops in my mailbox.

 

Does anyone else have a (potential) lender who seems to trump all others in sheer volume of offers sent?

For me it's BOA, for my wife it's Citi.

Barclays hit me with up to 3 pre-apps every week for over a year they have finally stopped.

I get a Diamond Preferred offer weekly almost.  Capital One will send me one from time to time.  

 

I responded to a Discover and AmEx offer, so I assume that's why they stopped mailing me.

When I run the Citi pre-qualified tool, I usually get a batch of 3 or so offers mailed to me.

Yes, Barclays.  I've lost count of the offers they've sent me for the Barclaycard Rewards MasterCard.  I usually get several a month and they started sending them last year.  I guess they want me to apply for this card or something.....lol.  Right around the same time last year, Discover sent me a lot of offers too, but they finally stopped soon after I applied and got approved for the IT card.
