A&B, Lyles Place, The Patch, Ditch Records.

All good places to get your posters up. Theres a couple places too that I cant think of the names of.

Pacific Rim Pizza, both the Market Square and Broughton St. locations.

It's probably best to put up the posters yourself instead of giving them to the staff, since sometimes they can be a bit lazy and the posters don't go up for a day or two. And yes, I am allowed to say that - I used to work there and was as guilty of it as anyone else. - Fri, 26 Aug 2005 11:59pm

don't bother with the light poles downtown, they will only get covered by Hush posters in record time (10-15 seconds after you put them up) - Thu, 1 Sep 2005 11:29am

F.Y.I. - aside from pole postering, Metropol also offers an instore postering service. We have a list of about 70 retailers/cafes/restaurants that are poster friendly that we hit twice a week. We can guarantee about 30 posters out there at $0.50 per. We only charge for what goes up and we don't take down anything current. If you want to save yourself a little time and can afford the $15, give us a call. 384-POLE. - Fri, 2 Sep 2005 10:02pm
