Title: Do you have a newspaper subscription?
Post by: melodylogan45 on August 17, 2014, 05:47:17 am
Do you have a newspaper subscription or do you go out to purchase the paper?

I do not have a subscription any longer, so I go out Sunday morning to get the paper from the

Dollar Tree. I use the coupons all the time.📰

I receive the paper seven days a week and we get a free paper on Thursdays and Saturdays. My husband would be lost without his paper. I love the sunday paper for the coupons and ads.

We've never had a newspaper subscription because we never have time to read the paper. Even when I buy an odd paper on a Sunday for the adds I never get to read the paper.

We had cancelled the subscription and didn't get get one for several months. It's from one of the state's biggest city,(the local Daily paper really is a joke).  We were contacted about coming back and they offered a better rate.  Just a couple of coupons on Sunday made it worthwhile and I had discovered I missed reading the extra stuff in the paper, such as the food & recipes.  So while I may not read it so much for news,  I did miss that paper in hand!

No. I never seem to take the time to read the newspaper so we don't subscribe.  My husband reads it online.  I might skim through part of a paper at work....but mostly, I look for the crossword puzzles in the paper!

No I always watch the news and it informs me about what is going on so there is no need to buy a newspaper subscription besides I don't have the extra money to purchase it.

We have a subscription to our county newspaper which my husband reads religiously, but I never do. I prefer to get my news from TV as it involves much less effort and I always have several magazines and books on hand to read anyways.

I never really got into reading the newspaper.  I did pick up a Sunday subscription for part of a year recently, but only to support a kid's school drive.  I'll probably use those newspapers in my garden and compost pile, but never read them.

I still do but I am considering cancelling it since they have their website now.  No sense paying extra for it.

I subscribe to a twice weekly local newspaper that covers the events and happenings in my small town.  And then I usually buy a Sunday national newspaper at the newsstand for the coupons and comics.

I have a newspaper subscription.I tried to get rid of it about 2 years ago,but I missed it too much and brought it back.My subscription also saves me money.I pay $18.99 per month to get my paper every day.If I bought a paper every day at the single copy price,it would be $35 per month.

My local paper only comes out once a week, so if I want to read it I'll buy it at the gas station.

We used to get two papers delivered 7 days a week, one that my husband likes and one that I prefer.  We cut one out, though, and kept mine, mainly because it was the more local newspaper.

Yes, I'm subscribed to the Wallstreet Journal and my local newspaper. I usually get them on select days, but I make sure in particular for my local newspaper to get my Sunday paper for the extras including circulars and coupons.

Yes, we get the paper delivered every day.  I did cancel it a few years ago, but we really missed the daily paper and of course the coupons.

No. It would be pointless since I don't read the paper. If I needed it, I could just grab a copy as I leave the train station.

Used to have the local newspaper, but they lost a customer just for not renewing our subscription, They are crazy. They wanted to double the price then they made us a deal, and don't know what happened after that, think they were to call us back and they never did.
