HOW TO PLACE A CLASS AD
It’s easy. Just type or print the
text of your ad, multiply the number of words by 40¢ per word, and
send us a check or money
order for the total. (Note that a phone number, including area
code, counts as
one word.) Then mail your ad text and payment, made out to
the Noe
Valley Voice, so that we receive it by the 15th
of the month before the
month in which you’d like to advertise. The address is Noe
Valley Voice Class
Ads, P.O. Box 460249, San Francisco, CA 94146. (Sorry, the Voice is
unable
to accept Class Ads by phone or email.)
10 for 10 discount: The Noe
Valley Voice publishes 10 months a year. (We’re on vacation in January and August.) If
you place the same class
ad in 10
issues, you are

percent
discount. To figure your cost, deduct 10
percent from the total amount due for 10
issues.
The next Voice will be the February
2012 issue,
distributed in Noe Valley the first week of February. The
deadline for
Class Ads is Jan. 15.
Note: The issue will be on the streets for one

a self-addressed,
stamped envelope. Refunds are not granted unless we have made
