Here's a tip - I live in San Diego but actually get the L.A. times delivered. Why? Well, it's cheaper, it has all the same coupons (yes, sometimes they are a little different, but it always has the same general inserts).

Plus a bonus - how did I get the paper for FREE? If you have any United Frequent Flyer Miles it only takes 800 miles to subscribe for a whole YEAR of Sunday only. I think it takes about 20,000 miles just to upgrade from Coach to first class and way more to actually get a free ticket - so 800 for a year of a paper sounded great to me!

I thought that was great - then when there are great coupons I don't have to feel bad buying my local paper.

Hope that helps someone! Check out your mileage points to use them for something other than just tickets if you want to! Lots of times it pays off!
