I know a few people who have done it and it's the shittest pay ever. Seriously not worth your time. I remember doing one lot of pamphlet deliveries once with a friend, we had to deliver 1000 pamphlets and it took us I think about 4 or 5 hours. We got $20 ($10 EACH). I would just look for a proper job if I were you.

it's alright if you've got free weekends.
like u get ur family to do it as exercise.

when i did it,
we put leaflets in magazines while watching tv, and folded them into bags and boxes.
then on weekends, we'll walk the blocks and shove them in letter boxes.
so it's like 2hrs max of ur time if you get others to help, then split the money
it's not much, but good exercise!

yeah it's only good if you want to start doing exercise. Then it's like you're getting paid for walking.
But otherwise, pick another job, pay's really not worth it...

just go do telemarketing or labourous or macccas jobs, they pay much better.
my friend is working at homebush for acer doing pick and packing or something and he gets about 600 clear for FT work. so its not that labourous but yeah, the money is alright. he bought a used bmw the other day...lol.

What do you do? Dump all the papers? Burn them? Eat them?
yeah i heard the employers actually send you a letter in the mail if they suspect you are not delivering them, so you start actually doing the job again

but this job is even too annoying for lazy scammers like myself

i use to do it. the best type of peper delivery i reckon is when u have alot of different ads eg 10 differnt ones that means u get paid extra for each type u deliver. and you sit infront of yuor Tv folding them together which takes about 1.5 hours.

then u walk and deliver then in about 2 hours. i got lazier and lazier and skipped alot of areas.

I've been doing pamphlet deliveries for a while now.
I used to do them when I was in primary school and hated it and then I took it up again last xmas holidays coz I was bored. I don't really do it for the money (the pay isn't very good and I already have a job) but more as a motivator to get me out walking. Normally I collate them at night whilst watching TV then deliver them in the morning. It doesn't take me very long and doesn't waste much of my time.

obviously you don't need a car.
just look at all the posts above, we've all done it at one time in our lives when we didn't have cars.

and notice some posts which have 'exercise' in them

Pamphlet deliveries make you wish you were dead.

You've been warned.
