Yes, I leave a couple under my windshield wiper and it does say TAKE ONE.
And of those places, I dont know if I ve gotten any orders. But ONE it gets my name out there, TWO the book is OLD so I don't mind losing it, and THREE people will learn about our products (if they dont already know!)
Save your old catalogs and put the tag line on the label and affix!
I also take older postcard invites, and stamp or staple on a business card. Great for handing out too and keeping in your car.
and Yes, I have the website and merrill stickers on my car! the grey vw beetle, that's me!
Good luck!

Here's a tip I heard that one of the very successful men directors (either Don or David - can't remember which) - anyway, he has a shower caddy that he fills with catalogs, business cards, etc. and attaches it to the outside of his car when he goes into Target, grocery, etc. He says when he comes back out, it's empty!!

I just started delivering Parenting magazines once a month to 50 locations. It only takes a few hours of one day once a month. January was my first month, but this month I plan to leave at least one PC catalog at each of my stops. We'll see if it brings any business, but basically it will get rid of any extra catalogs I have from F/W 07.
