To place a personal ad
Personals are $15.00 for two months, or three months for $20.00. The maximum number of words is 40. If you wish to exceed 40 words, each additional word is 20 cents. For example, a 50-word personal for two months costs $17.00; for three months it costs $22.00. Numbers count as one word. Hyphenated words (for example, 50-word and either/or) count as two. When in doubt, count it.
Be positive: describe what you want in a person, not what you don't want. A negative ad, such as "no X or Y" can be a turn-off. The Chronicle will not print sexually explicit ads. The Chronicle reserves the right to edit to conform to our policy and style, and if your payment is incorrect.
Personals must be received by the 15th of the month in order to be included in the next month's issue. Include your forwarding address and a signed statement that you are over 18. Please print legibly your name, address and phone number on the same piece of paper as your personal ad and your signed statement.
