Hotels – When you’re vacationing, you of course leave your maid a tip, at least most people do, or should. Bored maids WILL read business cards, I guarantee it!
Public Restrooms – This is the perfect place to leave your cards for others to see. You can place a few on the sink countertops as well as in the stalls. You read stuff on those walls all the time, why not business cards!? You could tape them on the wall or leave a few on top of the toilet paper dispenser.

Public Libraries – For libraries, politely ask the owner if you could continuously keep their front desk supplied with your cards.
