As above really. When I used to do bus work I’d buy a paper daily to read at a terminus but I haven’t brought a daily paper for a couple of years now.
Most of my news comes from the online papers which you don’t pay for. Just wondering if anyone still buys a paper on a day to day basis.
Haven’t bought a newspaper or magazine since the invention of the online.
I can’t remember the last time I bought a newspaper, it must be several years ago now.
Yes, still the most enjoyable way of reading the news, most online sources are a bit light on content.
only at weekends
I have the Daily Express and the Sunday People,plus a couple of local weekly papers,also the Commercial Motor.
I don’t even read the freebie that goes straight in the recycling bag.
I get the sun everyday ,its just habit ,read daily mail online .
The Sun everyday, usually do the crossword while tipping, but wondering why I bother buying it lately when the front page news is about the zb ing X Factor
I do but only to line the budgies cage.
Ditto harry and tacho - I used to buy different papers as the mood took me (no loyalty with me) day in, day out for years, but times roll on, and news/media is widely available every which way you turn. The papers must have taken a circulation battering under the onslaught of online formats. All owned by the same barons anyway. They can`t have their cake and eat it.
I buy the Sunday Times ,it lasts me all week when parked up in the bus.
when i worked for asda the best units they had were the ones with the most old newspapers in the lockers ,ive spent alot of time waiting at back doors flicking thru the sport ,is that still going
Can you all please start buying papers again cos it keeps me in a job[WINKING FACE].
There always used to be a paper shop that was open early morning and where you could park to nip in,I bought the Daily Mirror for40+ years.
I see you are from posh end of blackpool ardennes,i was born in blackpool and was brought up in a boarding house on kirby road next to the collasium bus stastion ,move to yorkshire in my early teens but all my family are still in blackpool,my aunt has a cafe on lytham road so went the other week to visit ,its turned ruff over the last few years
I’ve never bought newspapers regularly, unless Private Eye counts. Very occasionally my other half buys the Sunday Independent, and we get the local free papers shoved through the door, but that’s about it.

That’s about as mythical as a unicorn.
I’ve bought the Daily Mirror for forty odd years because I follow “Garth” every day. Were just home from a holiday in the Caribean and the daughter had two weeks papers neatly lined up on the kitchen worktop so I could catch up. Bless her.
