    In my yellow pages they have coupons for pizza and burgers. Other than that it's good old fashioned google.

    I picked "other" as I do use "yellow pages" but I only use them online. Not the hard-copy versions I've seen in antique stores.

    LOOOOVE the 44!!!!! I will have a Marlin Levergun eventually. For now mine and my fathers Ruger revolvers are the only members of the 44 stable.


    IL is a no-rifle state for deer...depending on seasons and what not we can choose between pistol, shotgun or muzzleloader.

    I've not picked up anything but the 44 in 4 years.

    Dang it. I hi-jacked another thread.


    Yellow Pages...online only.

    I can't remember last time I used the Yellow pages. The internet is so easy.
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    If they eliminate the yellow pages there will be some upset NYPD Cops. It's the best thing in the world for extracting a confession without leaving any marks.

    Personally I use it for it's intended purpose a handful of times a year.

    i never use it.. most smartphones have a google maps feature that lets you look up places and dial directly from there..

    as a side note.. my tattooer has switched shops a few times and does lots of traveling.. all his clients keep in touch with him via facebook or twitter.

    A client of mine was in a high position with Yellow Book and their internet services. He quit, namely because no one uses Yellow Book. There are many new ways via internet to promote one's business and services. btw I voted "NO".

    I typically find phone numbers for businesses online. I programed the most common ones into my cell phone, including Time Warner, so I can call them when the internet goes out.

    As often as your internet goes out you should put them in your "5".

    +1. I'm usually careful not to run out of toilet paper but when I do .....
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
