I wouldnt be without YP. Only spend £900 a year on advert and brings in a lot of work.
I think it depends on where you are in the country.

As for leaflets i found that a waste of money. I tried three diffrent designs and put out about 100,000 in total and didn't get much work at all.
Its all down to location.
