I'm not going to hex myself, but I have to say the only call I got today was to remind me of my 8:15 dinner reservations. Yesterday it was boooooooking.com asking me for a meeting. I haven't had a single call from any of these websites. I had an email or two a few months ago, but that's all.
I look at every phone call with a local area code suspiciously. It's in my nature..

I said to this guy that we are only allowed to rent rooms by the night, he asked how much, and then said "A NIGHT!" As you know our rates aren't high. I agree with you 100%, local calls = a waste of time 99.9% of the time. Unfortunately people have cell phones from other areas, states, etc. You never know who anyone is before they call. Many of the 800#'s are people calling from work. Although they can check our website and book online and bobyeruncle.
I just saw our town paper calling,,,I vowed to not answer the phone for the rest of the day, I have had 5 useless phone calls thus far. We have a subscription, so it isn't that. Probably calling for us to place an ad, as they know how much business it will bring us!
