Funny story. On the 4th of July a dog showed up in our driveway. We share a driveway with another home and the three of us were trying to figure out whose dog it was. One of us went and knocked on doors but to no avail. One neighbor pointed us in the direction of who they thought it was, but when we knocked on the door nobody answered. I looked at tax records to find who owned the property. We googled their name for a phone number but came up empty-handed. Then, I pulled out my phone book and looked them up there. I found their phone number, called, it was an old on the counter answering machine, I left a message and half-way through the message the owner of the dog picked up the phone, said it was their dog, and was right over to get him. He was in the shop and didn't hear us knocking on the door. Ends up he is a baker and brought us a couple of loaves of bread as a thank you. Couldn't have done it without the phone book! -Kasey

It might come up on an Internet search but the book is long ago recycled.

You know what? I keep them for a while. You know why? Because I have old-school clients that ask for them. And then I hand them off. Otherwise they get recycled. But what if the apocalypse happens and we can never do what we're doing right now again? Hahaha it can happen!

We get one every year, but never use it as it is just as quick (or quicker) to google it. However, for advertising, we are still in the YP and online YP because we want to be where the people are looking -- online.

We throw them under an end table, where they collect dust until next year's edition lands on our doorstep.

I don't use it. I don't have it. Online search only.
Kasey and John made a good point, sometimes Yellow Pages could be useful even today!

Yes ... stop being stuck in the 80's. I had to laugh because we were just sent 'our books' the other week. I recycle mine & feel badly that they've killed a poor tree somewhere for something that no one (only you) uses.
I've gotten used to google.

I think they may be popular with folks that are less computer savvy. I don't use them. With the internet at my fingertips & OK Google in my house there's not much reason to open a book. It's a thing of the past for me.

Frankly, I don't know why they still send them. White Pages are more useful, but Yellow not so much.

As you may know yellow pages are published as a requirement for allowing the landline monopoly.
I find, when I too short to examine a power panel. and no bricks are available, the Yellow Pages is a very good alternative.
Don't we miss the American days of the Thanksgiving dinner where someone is boosted by the Yellow Pages?
