I Bought A Copy Of The Telegraph This Morning Thinking I Might Have A Go At The Crossword.

I only noticed when I got home that it now costs £3.80.
Too much for a paper?

[ToraToraTora]

Seems like a lot, I haven't bought a paper for years.

[goodgoalie]

Yes, I think so, though I do buy The Times (£3) on a Saturday.
They all want us to take out subscriptions

[Spicerack]

£3.50 now, gg.
It is a lot but I suppose we have 2 choices.

[Spicerack]

^ Sorry. That's Sunday's.

You could try The Yorkshire Post on a Saturday. You get a magazine with all next week's radio and tv programmes; puzzles galore; news
both local and international, and all for £2.90.

Maybe best buy a paperback with Telegraph crosswords in. (I did that a while back, can't recall starting one, nor where it is now.)

[Ken4155]

I've stopped buying newspapers on a daily basis - just the Saturday one because of the amount of racing - and saved myself over £400 per year!

[FatticusInch]

Sounds a lot! Wouldn’t an online subscription be cheaper?
They often pop up when I look for links but I’ve never actually taken notice of the costs.
I’m amazed that anyone even buys a newspaper these days.

journalists like to eat. Those working for the Mail and Guardian can't even rely on subscriptions to feed them. But it seems quite a lot to pay just for a crossword.

sandyRoe, if you'd bought today's Telegraph - for the Enigmatic Variations crossword - you'd have received another blow... they printed the wrong grid!
