Are there any advertisement books that come to the house either by mail or tossed in the driveway. I'm talking about something that advertises local businesses, events and has a classified section. Also, any coupon books like Val Pak? Do people use these or just throw them out?

If so, what town has them?

We get val-pak and there is another in a bigger envelope just like it. There is a magazine once a month too. Not much in either though IMO.

Really, that's it? They don't have anything that they throw in the driveway or even have at the local grocery store, etc? I was looking for a weekly paper type book.

We get the Clipper Magazine once a month, and I generally find a few coupons in there that we can use for restaurants, ice cream, etc. It's where I discovered The Mason Jar, which we still haven't checked out but are planning to. We also get Val Pak monthly, and another one that's like Val Pak. I know the Publix near us in Greer has a big display near the door with various free publications (real estate, cars, etc), but I've never looked long enough to see if there is a weekly type thing- there could be, though.

I'm familiar with all the ones mentioned and I do use them. Is there any paper with town events and classifieds combined? Not so much just Greenville but the smaller towns like Greer. The reason I ask is we are trying to find where small businesses advertise. If we bring our businesses with us, I'm trying to find a place to advertise that is reasonably priced that gives us results.

Also, depending on the part of town you live, The Greenville Journal and the Golden Strip Tribune.

We received a "Money Mailer" envelope today, basically another Val Pack.

Here's the link that was on the bottom.

There is a weekly publication like what you are looking for. It is not free, I don't think and I've never found it to be useful when I've bothered with one. I don't have any idea what the name of it is or the price.

There is not an overabundance of this kind of stuff here.

We get the grocery store ads and some coupons dropped in our driveway every Tuesday in the Del Norte subdivision.
