The only thing missing was a "mention this ad and get 10% off" and a little border with dashed lines and a scissors graphic to show you where to cut out your coupon.

When my dad died, she tried to put an ad in the newspaper, saying "Robert's dead." She knew that they charged by the word. Anyway, the got back to her and explained that they couldn't run the ad. Something to do with a 5-word minimum. She wrote back and added "suit for sale."
