Our family went through the exact same thing. We found that no one read the paper on a regular basis. At the time, we were recieving two. We cut back to one, then to just one on Sundays. After a few months, those too gathered in the recycling pile still in the plastic. :rolleyes:

We've been paperless for about three years now.

:snap:

I have to make my husband watch that movie.

i just cancelled our paper, was going through the same thing, we would get them, read maybe the front page, and they would stack up on our trashcan or get tossed outside into the garbage right away... seemed like a waste of money to me

I get Sunday only, for the coupons, sale flyers and comics. The Albany TU is pretty lame so if I got another paper it would be the NY Times. I love their travel section.

You shouldn't feel bad about going paperless. Go for it!

Well - I cancelled the Press-Telegram last weeek with my last bill, but this evening I've already gotten a visit by a poor street kid working his way through college and a phone call from the cancellation department to try to sell me on Sunday only service. I recall the LA Times were equally as annoying with their pitches to get me to re-subscribe. I'm beginning to wonde if I shouldn't got back to last years tactic and put myself on a year long vacation hold.

Can't we specify that they do not call us?

Nope. That's one of the exceptions to the do-not-call list, if you've done business with them in the past.

I think we have to pretend to move - out of the country

I went "paperless" a few years ago and it feels great. I am helping the environment! Oh, I still subscribe to the dailies, only I pay extra for the version printed entirely on leather.

What about if you tell them not to call, record each time you say that, then, then, then, I don't know.
