Yes, I have seen it printed directly on the package and just on a piece of paper in a clear package (so that you can see through to the paper). I suppose both are equally used. It's crazy, but you have to admit it's a good technique -- perhaps even better than coupons. You get an actual physical instant gift for looking at an advertisement. You don't have to send away or go out for anything, and you don't have to purchase anything in order to receive it. Just take the tissues!
Kanazawa is in the region halfway between Osaka and Tokyo on the Japan Sea north of Nagoya. I'm not familiar with Kanazawa dialect, but perhaps it has some similarities to Kansai dialect. Or, the tissue ad might just have been written in the Kansai dialect for some reason.

Crazy stuff.
