Are there locations where the daily paper can be purchased?

Is your last name really Genius?

Postal stations have vending machines and stores also sell papers.

Drugstores, the mail stations and the Sun offices. Also the grocery stores as well.

No ma'am. A portion of my career was spent as a technology help desk analyst -- hence the username Ms PC Genius

The mail stations have vending machines. The last time I checked, the vending machines still only charge 50 cents for the daily paper and one dollar on Sunday, even though the prices have increased to a dollar daily and $1.25 on Sunday. In the stores, you will pay full price plus tax.

At this time, I will not be a full-time resident, but do enjoy reading the paper when I am on site. I predict a morning stroll to the mail station, pick up a paper, and back to the homestead to enjoy a cup of coffee and a morning read....

Makes sense. I do notice that the machine in Village of Bonita is often out of papers by mid morning.

The rec centers only have one Daily Sun for people to read while they are there. You aren't supposed to take it. They do give away the recreation paper that comes out on Thursday.

You can get a yearly subscription and they will start and stop it when you are here. The days you aren’t here are added back to you subscription end date so you aren’t paying for paper you don’t get.
