When the current catalogs go out of date....do y'all still use them? I don't want mine to go to waste if I ever have leftovers.
 
Save your old catalogs for fairs or other booths. Create a sticker that says something like "...for a current catalog, contact ....."
 
I do the same as Ann. I used to throw them away, how silly was that. Seems like when you do booths the people are just out to get freebies, so if they're really interested in your info, they can call for a new catalog. That way you can save your current ones for your shows.
 
I also gave out old catalogs at my garage sale a couple weeks ago. Still no calls, but at least they are out there!
 
I save them and use them at fairs as well.
