Anyone else deliver newspapers?

I haven't seen this mentioned on here so thought I would ask if anyone else does it in their spare time?

I deliver for the Yellow Advertiser each week. I get between £15-20 for an hour and a half's work.

    Really??? I thought it was all a pittance at national minimum wage? might reconsider :)

  • I've thought about this but wouldn't know where to start.

    Find your local newspapers website. They usually have a form you can submit online. Or if you receive the yellow advertiser then you can find a form near the back of the newspaper. Fill it in and send it back.

    Just noticed this, i have managed to get a round delivering daily papers. My round takes 30 mins at most daily, 5 days a week and im getting £35 per week cash in hand so not to shabby at all.

  • does this affect tax credits? Do you have to inform them of the income?

    I'd love to do this but cant find anywhere to apply. I looked on my local newspapers website but couldnt find anything about delivering. Is there anywhere else I could look?
