Inserts In The Daily Sun
 
I always looked forward. especially Sundays, for all the sale inserts from local retail stores,
but their getting less and less if any at all, any reason for this?

Inserts are on Wednesday’s.

Maybe because it's cheaper to mail them to you as junk mail?

Why are you doing that?

They probably got left on the MMP while you were having your oil changed.

I miss the inserts advertising oil changes by quarts

Michael. yes it's true. I noticed that also. Miss my inserts. Walgreens and CVS used to have inserts. Now I have to go online for the sales of the week. I prefer to read all the inserts, coupons and paper with my coffee while watching the news. Guess I'm old school. It was getting too expensive to print since Covid hit, and sales at all stores declined.

Lot of crazy stuff post COVID. Lowes military discount for instance. If a $400 item is on sale for, say, $380, the 10% military discount doesn’t apply. “It’s already discounted” (??). Had they left it at the original price, the discount would have been $40. Discounts and sales of yesteryear seems to be evaporating.

The inserts come in the Thursday paper. I always thought it was weird there were none on Sunday too. I used to look forward to them.

You should Call the paper and ask. They also quit the Sunday magazine

In think the color inserts have Bern going down in quantity for awhile now. The larger amount of inserts around the major holidays. But I have noticed I get more ads on my emails from companies I should with.
