Newspaper out of date or still good for free stuff?
Most people only buy the newspaper when they are going to paint a room in their house and use it to lay on the floor but what you might not look into is the lazy people who put ad's in it to do easy stuff for cash. This one guy awhile back paid my friend $20 to get rid of his old fridge which was still working good and even if it wasnt it could always be sold as scrap metal.

ReplyDeleteNewspaper are moving more and more online
ReplyDeleteyou have to be careful with these ads though, some of the people who advertise stupid shit like that might be downright dangerous
ReplyDeleteI heard someone say once that in the future people will all have gone to internet and someone will say "Hey look at this new technology, we'll print it on paper now and you can take it anywhere, even without internet access!"
ReplyDeleteBetter yet, don't shell out the money for a newspaper, and use craigslist. :)
ReplyDeleteI always check my newspaper for deals like this. Good post!
ReplyDeleteYes a lot of people do disregard newspapers, but for those who look hard enough will find some great deals!
ReplyDeleteMesty =)
I disagree. I still read the paper fairly regularily.
ReplyDeleteThe medium only has a few years left, but it's certainly still going.
or craigslist.
ReplyDeleteNewspapers are definitely being overtaken by the internet. It takes them too long to come out with news because they have to print them and then distribute them. They still have one advantage over the internet and that is mobility. It is a lot easier to carry a newspaper with you and read it on your lunch break then to carry the internet with you. However, with netbooks and IPads and tablet PCs, newspapers may not have that advantage for long.
ReplyDeleteonce i got paid 250 dollars to install a fan. it needed the box, but still thats a lot since i was only 16.
ReplyDeleteI like the feeling of having a newspaper in my hands. So much more satisfying than reading online.

ReplyDeleteHm...you're right, never thought about that.
ReplyDeleteits very true the only time i get a newspaper is to line the birds cage
ReplyDeleteI can't remember the last time I picked up a newspaper.
ReplyDeleteThe internet has become the paper, the information is there instantly, it's more or less free for all the content you can think of,

Print media's been in trouble for some time now.
