HOOREY!!! Dropped off three "handbills" at the market today!!!
Gave my cart with one handbill to an incoming shopper and dropped two more off in two other carts. We might want to put some on the cars parked next to us in parking lots? (Is that legal?)

10. KICK!!! These are FANTASTIC. I'm buying my own Xerox machine
and a 50 gallon drum of wood-paste.

OK, maybe I'll just put $20 on my copy card at Kinko's, but these are fantastic and they need to be widely distributed. Thanks for the link.

This link and these PDF's REALLY NEED TO BE PROPAGATED. Buzzflash, KOS, Alternet, Michael Moore, Code Pink, anyone...these need to be copied and distributed everywhere by everyone.

18. I wish there was a way of permanently posting that web site
I guess we will just have to put it in our favorites list but wish every new visitor had access to that site just by coming here. :shrug: in the meantime :kick:

8. Don't forget mailing them
Whenever you pay bills or make a donation, slip a handbill in. Get more out of your 37 cents. Also, use business reply envelopes from credit card companies and the like--a boring job opening envelopes, so brighten somenone's day.

14. Great idea!! How long before the MSM picks up on this and the Repugs
pass a law that makes "handbills" illegal?

9. I did this today, too!!!
Even leaving the "discarded" handbill in the cart and handing the cart to a shopper as he went into the store!!

:bounce:

I picked the one about the Lies of George W. Bush - will print out the ones I think may work in my area.

15. I absolutely LOVE these handbills.
I've printed out one on every topic they've listed and am leaving them in shopping carts at a massive grocery store where people from all over my state come to go shopping. The filibuster one is being left everywhere imaginable.

16. I sent the link to my mom....
And she called me last night, absolutely delighted that she'd printed out her favorites. She's headed to Kinko's today to make color copies.

I love it - my 70 year old mother is not only going to leave them in shopping carts, but she's determined to leave one on the windshield of every vehicle she finds with a W sticker in the parking lots. I may have to hire her a bodyguard :)

17. Oh thank god
I have been trying to get people to do this for over a year. This is how they did it, fliers on car windows at church. We have to start doing the same thing. That's a great list of fliers and they're fact based, not sensationalized. Terrific!
