    Does chucking them in trash count? I think I used one in my twenties to keep my TV stand level when one side broke.

    Didn't even have one for my Granddaughter to use as a booster seat, recently. From the porch to the recycle bin for at least five years.

    I keep phone books for target use. Probably last used one four or five years ago for that purpose, and have been just chucking them in the recycle since then, and have a few in the garage I haven't recycled or shot yet.

    Last used one to actually look someone/thing up maybe ten years ago.

    I use it to look up a number every now and then; the last time was within the last month or so. My parents don't use any kind of computing device of any kind including a cell phone so they use them. My sister sometimes uses a computer but they use phone books for everything.

    FYI, phone books not leaving bruises is a myth, like dry land.

    Considering I just finished building a phone book and uploaded it to the printer last week I guess you could say I "used" a phone book a week ago.

    2 years ago. I used it to prop up my desk (sometimes when coworkers would sit on my desk, the corner wasn't very secure so it'd start to dip. I put the book on top of my cabinet under the desk to where now the weight was going onto the cabinet, thus supporting the whole thing).
