Valpak and MoneyMailer have very similar business models and pricing. Here’s what I found out based on customer reviews:

• Advertising is divided into “zones” of about 10,000 homes
• Pricing varies based on zip code, but both services typically charge around $300 – $800 per “zone.” (or 3 to 8 cents per household)

Now here’s the differences, just based on my observations receiving both of these at my home:

• ValPak’s branding is a bit sharper. The envelope has a nicer design and material, that makes it a little more elegant.
• At the same time, Money Mailer’s classic red, white and blue color scheme and logo is very recognizable and likely works to their advantage.
• Money Mailer coupons have a little more surface area, so it’s extra advertising space for you.
• In my particular envelopes, Money Mailer had fewer coupons, which means less competition/you’re a little more likely to stand out

Based on these differences, I would choose Money Mailer to advertise my business. However, it’s certainly going to vary depending on your local area, and the cost estimates you’re given from each company.
