Not only do they read; they cut out and show ads to their family and friends; they clip coupons for information and samples. When people see an advertisement in print, they can compare designs features and prices nationally known products and services. (And people do compare before they go out and buy.) Advertising in print is a handy thing. You can check back; the message is still there even when your attention is distracted When you add it up, print advertising--the kind you read in this newspaper--makes sense. And because it measures up to the buying habits of most consumers, print makes sales.

Don't you read before you buy?.
