Carrying business cards on shabbat

Question:

is it mutar to carry and hand out business cards on shabbat (with an eruv of course)?

Answer:

We should not hand out business cards, because they are business related material, called starei hedyotos, which we don’t read on shabbos. This is similar to the reason that we dont’t read advertisements on shabbos.
