jaffa1 Â Â 10 #1 Posted October 10, 2012 I hear the Sheffield Star newspaper is to go up by 10p to 60p next week. How can they justify that when it's now only wafer thin to what it used to be , not to mention all the mistakes that are made.

Bilge   34 #4 Posted October 10, 2012 If you don't like it you know what to do. It won't be long before it disappears. Few will care, or even notice.  I haven't bought a copy for about 10 years. I last looked at a copy in a chinese takeaway about 3 years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

archaeobard   11 #9 Posted October 10, 2012 It is probably going up in price because they are delivering to incorrect addresses...I've had one shoved through my letter box for the last month and do not subscribe. Somewhere there is an annoyed person not receiving their paper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

There is no longer a need for the purchase of the "Star" . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
