    Default Orlando couponers HELP - How do I get paper cost down?

    The Orlando paper is so expensive $1.50 or at least I think. I know the Tampa paper is $0.50 (one of them at least). I would love that price. I live in West Orlando.

    Any help?

    E-mail the El Sentinel, the spanish paper. It comes out on Saturday, has the coupons, and is FREE! Some local smaller stores carries it too. We have a Publix Sabor by me and you can go in on Saturday, after 4:00 and get them for free too

    It's not free but you can get a subscription to the Sentinel for Sunday's only. I called and was going to cancel my subscription and they gave me a discounted rate. I believe I pay about $14 a quarter for the Sunday paper. It works out to around $1.07 per Sunday paper.

    What I do (you may find this odd) is go around Sunday night (i'm about to go out now!) on a 3-4 mile bikeride through neighborhoods around me. I bring my backpack and look in the newspaper recycling bins (recycling day in my neighborhood is Monday). It's amazing how many people either throw out the coupons entirely (or the entire paper... still in the bag - what a waste of $$$!) or clip one or two and then chuck it. I'm usually able to get ~ 10 sets of inserts. Also, I'll pick up any El Sentinel papers I see, as the people in my neighborhood will just leave them there for weeks - so it's picking up litter at the same time.

    The El Sentinel doesn't have all the coupons though. Usually if there's more than one SS, it'll only have the smaller of the two. It also doesn't always have the P&G inserts. It's similiar to the Hernando Today. Most of the same inserts as the Tampa Tribune/St. Pete times, but not always.

    What a great topic

    I have the paper delivered. Then I usually burn ECBs on buying papers.

    Now I will look into the el Sentinel and recycling bins

    On a side note if the insert is good I do drive to exit 44 to pick up the lakeland ledger and winter haven paper. Winter haven paper is .50 and it has similar qs to tampa st pete. however it doesnt carry RP:sad:

    I also use RRs. I am looking forward to the money maker bodywash this week to help off set the cost

    Hmmmm...maybe I should go to my old subdivision on recycle day. It has a million houses in the subdivision

    I do not know how close you are to the Volusia cnty line, but the Daytona Beach News Journal sells thieir Sunday paper all week. On Tuesdays, the sunday paper goes on sale for $.38. Inserts are not as good...but you just need one good one to cover several papers/inserts.

    BTW...does anyone know if the El Sentinel delivers out of Orlando?
