Best Places to Leave Flyers in CBD

If you've got a House event happening somewhere in the CBD, here's my list of the most appropriate places to leave flyers. I'll be adding to this list as I find new places.

1) HMV Bourke St. will target most of the general music loving community. If the location for placing flyers is still on the top floor which is the House/RnB section, even better! (the RnB crowd wouldn't be interested in a House night anyway).

2) Central Station Somerset Place (off Elizabeth St). will target mostly DJs. Probably not as effective as HMV for flyer placement but still a great place with a large table left aside solely for flyers.

3) RMIT Swanston, Building 10 Level 4 Cafe is appropriate for me because I study at RMIT. But this place is very busy, and the coffee shop is the busiest. They've already got a some flyers for different events placed on the coffee shop's counter, so they seem to be OK with anyone coming and leaving flyers. This will target mostly students, of course.

4) The Vault cafe on Swanston Street below RMIT Building 10 (and below ground level!) is a nice funky place. There's plenty of flyers for many types of events there already.

5) Collectors Corner Swanston Street has plenty of flyers right under the counter. All the flyers are a bit close together so not many people will see our flyers unless they're looking at the entire flyer area in detail.

6) Platypus Shoes, Melbourne Central has an area on the floor right next to the entrance where a few flyers are kept.

7) QV Cnr Swanston and Lonsdale seems a good place to leave flyers, but I haven't found a flyer-friendly place in QV yet.

Not a very complete list! Feel free to leave your ideas and I'll add it to this list.
