Default re: advertising

Also, we purchased a small, pre-owned motor home 5 years ago, and that also has signage on both sides and the back ... a giant rolling billboard actually. One of the local restaurants is producing new menus right now with a center page devoted to local advertising. I decided to take an ad because the locals eat there on a regular basis, and the ad is affordable... just one job will pay for it. Traditionally, this restaurant renews its menus every 2 years, so I figure I have nothing to lose! I dont do "throw-aways" like placemats or paper napkins, though. The local high school calls every year soliciting for border ads for the sports schedule posters, but I dont do that either. I dont know where those posters go, but I have yet to see one in a public place. Those ads are very pricey too, partly because the school has a marketing outfit do them up, even though the school has its own facility where they could produce them ... (and I think they should do them as a class project ... the kids could learn a bundle about marketing, graphic design and production... but they didnt ask for my opinion... sigh).
