well they tried
 

I'll give the Daily Sun delivery people a big E for effort.. when I ventured out to get the paper between squalls about 5:15 this morning I picked up the double bagged paper and it had about 3-4" of water in the bags .. needless to say I won't be reading the paper this morning

You missed the story about the garbage guys not coming !

Mine was dry both bags tied at end. Ur guy goes extra mile

Ours was dry this morning also, double bagged and the open end was toward the street, so the rain did not enter. I have had the same situation you had in the past, highly dependent on how the newspaper ends up on the ground.

I really do not understand the concept of still getting papers (free or subscription) when you can see it on that computer thinggy or a grandpad (same thing as coming to read this forum on a daily basis)? Are you not risking those delivery peoples safety on a day like today? Forget about the paper, plastic and fuel needed to deliver the things, IMO. Flame on.

Surprisingly our paper deliverer only single bagged it and paper weighs a lot now. Never happened before, wonder if we have new person?

Today isn't much different than any other rain storm day. A lot of us are old school and like getting the paper daily in print.

SOAKING WET! If Charlie Brown was real, he would have drown.
There is always tomorrow.

First time this ever happened so let it go, but if it is only single bagged again in wet weather will complain

I wrap gifts I give in the funnies. Always have, always will.

Great!

This doesn't mean I'm giving you a gift.

Remember if your DS was lost or wet, a dry one was handed to at your front door. Now if you call they give you a .50 credit

I don't think I could bring myself to call after carrying the paper for 4 years when I was a kid.

Ours was delivered at 10:30 last night and doubled bagged. My guess is, most papers were delivered much earlier due to the incoming storm.
