How to keep screen OFF while charging (S3 and Note 2)

Don't know if all the Galaxy phones have this behaviour, but it sure is annoying. I like to keep my phone plugged in until I need it, as there is no harm done. The battery won't get "overcharged" or anything, and I'll have 100% juice with me when I leave. But both phones keep lighting up that they are done. And it lights up the phone every few seconds, it's really, really annoying. Is there a way to disable this behaviour?
