registered logo, it can be added to your ad. TIDBITS®936 maintains the copyright to all ad designing and reserves the right to
reject any advertising found to be offensive, in bad taste, or for no reason.
The ad sizes and pricing can be
very confusing, please give J.J. a call at (936) 295-8116 and he will be
happy to go over them with you.
Placement of advertising ads
is at the sole discretion of the Publisher, and specific locations cannot be
guaranteed.
There are discounts available for
advertising runs lasting 13 weeks or longer.
The front page advertisements are a
specific size and ad placement on the front page is determined by seniority
by continuous time advertising in TIDBITS®936. These ads are all designed with
'Spot' Color and are rotated on a weekly basis.
The restrictions placed by the franchising company, Tidbits Media, Inc. for
the paper, limit the front page ads to the specific sizing on
either side of the informational printing. The informational printing on the
remaining pages may be adjusted to either the right or left and allows for the
larger ads up to a full page in width. And now with the ability to add
inserted pages, you can expand your ad size on the middle pages to any size
you like, including a full 20w"x 16h" center spread.
Every effort will be made to accommodate every advertiser in making sure
that their ad is in a location where they requested.
However, due to the limitations for ad placement by the franchising company,
Tidbits Media, Inc. and for the placement of certain special features that
are vital in making TIDBITS®936 what it is, advertising may be relocated as required.
Advertising space on the Front Page is very limited and at a higher
rate. Eligibility or placement of advertising on the Front Page is
determined by continuous advertising seniority.

During the distribution each week, a log is maintained and computer

determined that a larger percentage of available papers are being returned each
week, an adjustment is made to the delivery totals and the additional papers
