If yes do you use any of the products or services advertised?

No, I do not read anything that is left tucked under my windshield wipers. It feels like a telemarketing call: An advertiser uses my property to impose a sales pitch on me. I merely recycle the paper.
As a business owner, I have been tempted to do something similar because there is a parking lot full of cars near my shop that I would love to be able to market to. My personal conviction to treat my customers how I would like to be treated is the only thing that stops me.

Yes I do, sometimes I use the services advertised, I am so sad the other day I was left out of a leaflet run and making sure no-one was looking I took a leaflet off another car to see what the leaflets were about! lol Maddy
ps The leaflet was warning drivers about other motorists who steal leaflets off windscreens!

I read the headline; if it is something I am interested in and the leaflet 'grabs' me, I may read on. Thing is, I don't litter, so whatever the leaflet is trying to sell, it normally ends up in my car being carried around for weeks, and will be read at least once before it is finally thrown away.

Yes. I check to see if they are a summons or some other complaint against my car. Even if they are an ad, they go with me into the car and I read them later.
If the product or service sounds interesting, I check it out and sometimes end up buying it.

No I don't - they are a pain, along with all the other leaflets scattered around the car park, almost as big a pain as the people who scatter them!

I only glance at them. If it is a service or product that I have been needing or wanting, I will look closer. Otherwise it goes straight to the trash.

Very rarely. Just as I hardly ever read flyers that are pushed through my door or inserted into newspapers and magazines. All a total waste of money and trees in my opinion.

No, at best they irritate me, at worst they get rained on and leave paper pulp over my car...
