AIBU to think that £3 is a lot for the newspaper?

[Muddlingalongalone]

I probably am, haven't bought one in years, which is probably why they are so expensive,upply & demand and all that mostly get my news online.
Picked it up today without checking. Probably would have guessed £1.50-£2.
Seems like a lot.

Wtf? Last time I looked at a newspaper I think it was 60p or something?

sunday papers were always a bit more than mon-sat ones

Was it the Observer? Sunday papers are more expensive anyway but think this one is the worst. I tend to get a sat paper now and sick of paying loads for a Sunday paper and not reading half the supplements

YANBU. Who even buys newspapers anyway. Especially when there's nothing that you can't get from the Internet that you can't get from a newspaper.

I stopped buying weekend papers years ago, and even longer ago for daily papers. I couldn't take one more Yotam Ottolenghi 12-page spread plus all the news I'd already read the night before online. I agree that it's an unnecessary expense.

I would happily pay that I'd the reporting was any good. U forty a telly its utterly rubbish. I've mostly stopped reading British papers now.

Yes the Observer. I realised my children never see me "read" because I read news on my phone and books on my kindle & that I miss a broadness in my news reading because I just headline off homepages.
