We don't post flyers to bulletin boards nearly as often as _I'd_ like us to.
(_I_ certainly never have the chance to hit UC campus... I only hit a
few coffee shops, and sometimes a bookstore or three).

So in that sense, it's not working becauswe we're not making an effort.

People often print off and/or copy flyers themselves.  Every once in
a while (lately, it seems like only about once a year, for our anniversary
meetings) we print a large run off at a local copy shop.  I think the last
time we did this it cost $70.  (I think that also included printing a LOT
of handouts for Software Freedom Day and to generally have handy at
meetings and other events -- i.e., not flyers for the club, but general
Linux/Open Source/etc. info. handouts.)
