We stopped years ago because everyone was getting their news online. A few years ago, I subscribed to the Seattle Times Sunday edition just to revisit whether if it was something we’d use, and it was a good deal for eight weeks. Surprisingly, we liked the grocery store ads the most. I was undecided about whether we should renew just for grocery store ads so I let it lapse for a few weeks as I occasionally looked at the renewal form they’d sent. Then one day they sent a NASTY letter that looked like they were sending me to collections! They were basically trying to scare me into renewing! Screw that. I tossed it, but now I wish I’d kept it. Craziness.
