Wegmans Cruelty Web Site Cards E-mail
Thursday, 14 July 2005
Wegmans Cruelty business cardWe've had great success handing out these cards [PDF] in public places, or at coffee shops and stores when we get permission. We print them two sided on card stock and then cut them down. Activists have been spreading them around the region and saying to people "Please visit this web site when you have the chance." One person called us to say she was upset that someone had dropped one of these inside of her car at a Wegmans store. That's not what we had in mind when we made these available. Be sure to stay on public property and away from vehicles when you hand them out, and be respectful! And thank you for promoting the film.
