Hello all,
I would very much like to buy the times newspaper dated the 5th of November. I googled and found a website that wants to charge 40 pounds for it. Any better ideas please?

Contact The Times directly; I did this and they kindly sent me a copy. They may even give it to you for free.0

Thank you so much who would have thought it would be that easy.0

Or ask your local newsagent if they still have some previous editions?
Or ask anyone you know who reads the Times if they have that edition?

Ask on your local freecycle, someone there is bound to still have a copy probably sitting in the recycling

Can't answer the question I am afraid, but the problem with this may be that I believe News agents have papers on a sale or return basis - so the newspaper will take back any papers they haven't sold (it wouldn't be in the shop owners interest to keep hold of any). But I may be wrong about that.
I am assuming you need it to keep, if you don't then I'd suggest your local library - they probably couldn't give it to you as they tend to hang on to back copies.Remember, you are stuck with your debt if you can't budge it.0 -
i agree with loony toons!! freecycle!!!! :] i bet someone has one lying around the house, also check librarys? because i know they have daily editions but maybe they keep them for a certain time??I am a full time Benefit and Money Adviser for a leading non profit charity and I LOVE my job

Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere (please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies.
