Dont know about cheap, i use to drive a Cab in London and just for door adverts on one Cab cost 4.000 for a one yesr contract.
The driver was lucky if he got 500.00 out of it, and then when it came to taking them off it would take half the paintwork with it.

Lol
If you look at the link it is £75 for 1 week on the back of the bus.
And £9 a week for inside the bus.
Sounds good to me!!

Do people actually read adverts on the inside of buses?
I travel by bus regularly but couldn't for the life of me say what was being advertised.

I'm not knocking the idea but in my experience I have found that when something says 'from £9' the price is usually higher for what you actually want.

And £9 sounds OK until you look at how long you might have to have the advert for, and is that just on one bus or on several.

It would be interesting to find out....

they operate countrywide so I would guess that London would be sky high rates, and the £9 somewhere less high profile.

Wonder how much a half page add in a national newspaer costs.

Somewhere in these forums I have posted a list of advertising costs to cover most of what's readily available. I'll try to find the link and post it here - it's scary how much national advertising costs, I'm thinking around £10,000 for quarter page in certain nationals but would need to check. And thet's just for one ad.

I don't know about the costs of newspaper adverts, most UK ones seem to sell their advertising at a cost per region, I would imagine the US ones operate the same sort of policy.

I looked at costs for advertising in UK Magazines last year,

has the links
These were the Hello Magazines rates to give you some idea.

Not sure what the US, Canadian, Australian,New Zealand, & South African ones charge. (An english advert in a non english speaking country would be a waste IMO)
