Has anyone used these, or know of a good source where to get them printed?

They're the little flyers that look like $100 bills that most people can't resist picking up. They're used as drop cards where ever you go, drop one on a table, leave it with your tip at a restaurant, etc...

I think they're clever and just started with a program that these would be IDEAL for.

Please let me know if any of you have used them and what successes or failures you may have had with them. AND if you know where I can get some printed fairly inexpensively.

:popcorn: Hi

One of the members here mentioned VistaPrint.

You can order post cards - 4x6, and choose the design that
has the money on it.

They might be offering a special where you can get 100
free and just pay for shipping. Register with them, and
if they are not on special now, they will be. Just watch
your emails for the promotions.

Thanks for trying David, but what I'm looking for are sort of a novelty "drop card" made of paper to give the appearance of a folded $100 bill which is what catches people's eye and compels them to pick it up. Of course, they'll then realize that it's not really a $100 bill, but by then they already have it in their hand and they're going to look at "who is responsible for this". Most will keep it simply for the clever novelty of it. But none the less, they will always have your business at their fingertips.

Thanks for the tip Audrey. I visited her site and she actually does have a bunch of money type items; just about everything but what I'm looking for:rolleyes:

Here's kinda what I'm looking for, but I think these are card stock paper and these folks only have the $20 bill and not the $100.

Hi Honey,

Well, still couldn't find a reasonable source for these drop cards. Either too expensive (as much as $400/1000), or not very good quality.

So, we've decided to take things into our own hands. My husband has created a design (see attached) and is negotiating with a local printer to have them custom sized (we were surprised that most printers won't do this), set, and as reasonably priced as possible. We hope to be able to start our own site as a resource for these and resell them. If we can get them from the printer inexpensively enough, we'll likely start an affiliate program with them as well.

Also, because we've seen them in either $100 or $20 denominations, we'll likely make all denominations available depending on what you want to do with them (I thought they'd make awesome coupons also - ex. - "Redeem this $5 Coupon Off Your Next Purchase of $50 or More!"). So, if all goes well, we'll have $5, $10, $20, and $100 drop cards / coupons and you'll be able to customize your message on the back.

The center line is simply a fold but will not be part of the print.
