All around Sofia there are advertisements, which have tabs with a number to contact at the bottom which you can pull off. These advertisements are all around Sofia; usually they are found on street lights, but really you can find them almost anywhere along the streets. Most of them can go pretty unnoticed unless you are seeking them out. Which is what I do.

One of my hobbies is collecting a tab from every advertisement I come across when I am out and about. I enjoy this hobby because it makes me pay more attention to my surroundings and it is very satisfying to rip the tabs off the advertisements. Plus if I ever need my roof repaired, I have five different numbers I can call! 

Although this hobby is a bit unconventional and may be leading to a life as a hoarder, it is enjoyable and gives me lots of colorful stubs.
